Best Answer

If you are using a fairly recent edition of Windows and have the appropriate drivers and a working USB port. Plug in the flash drive to a USB port. If you are not prompted to open up the folder then select My Computer either located on your desktop or immediately in your start menu at the bottom of the screen. There should be a number of drives available to choose from, the new one and probably the last one will be the one you want. On some editions it will identify it as portable media.
