Best Answer

go to the control panel and un-install the drive unit, then shut the computer down totally. Let it re-boot and see if it then locates the drive. If it re-installs it with no problem then try a DVD in it. If it still does not, you probably need to update your drivers.

How do you load information from flash drive to computer?

When you plug your flash drive into an available USB slot, a window should automatically pop up saying " view files or folders", click on it then drag n drop your documents into the opened window. If the window does not appear, click on start menu - my computer("computer" in vista) and look for a drive that's not your hard drive (usually C), and not your CD/DVD drive, in my computer, my Flash drive shows up as "UDISK F". Once you find your flash drive icon, double click it to open a new window. Open your documents folder and drag n drop the documents directly into the opened window. Abra Cadabra you are now a computer genius (According to my Mom).
