Probably corrupted FAT table, partition info or something like that. There are several ways to fix it (if that is the problem in the first place) depending upon OS you are using.
Hello ,
Thank you for your replies. My removable disk can be read in different pc.
I can read all files from it. I can not read only in my pc. But I can see as removable drive, not volume label. Actually it has volume label.
My os is windows xp service pack 2.
Thanks.

Tough one. Then you obviously have problem with your PC. But I really don't know what to suggest. If you had to install any driver to have the disk working in the first place, try uninstalling/reinstalling it. Or try system restore. Maybe someone elese can help you better with XP.
Do you have any mapped drives?
I.E. network drives?
If you have a network drive that is normally mapped to the next available physical drive letter any USB key plugged in will see itself as the physical drive letter even if it is already mapped and you see no files on it.
Can you see the drive in device managment? if so try changing it's drive letter.
Hi,
I have exactly the same problem and i have a little more to add... my computer crashed a while go (about 3 weeks to a month) and i tried to use a usb on it for the 1st time the other day ... BUT my two hard drives in my comp USED to be connected by raid but i now have them as 2 seperate... and since then usb has not worked... the usb connects properly (shows up in device mgmt correctly) BUT when i go into disk management (control panel > admin tools > computer mgmt > disk mgmt) it does NOT automaticaly assign a drive letter and when i DO assign it onwe (G:/ for instance) its still doesnt show in my computer .... BUT once i have assigned it one (still in disk mgmt atm) and i right click on it ... if u click "Open" it will open it in an explorer frame ... (if u hit explorer an error msg appears) very very very strange ... the plot thickens... ill keep u upto date with any advancements...
I have had the same thing happen at times when a corrupted driver expects to find the drive on a different USB port.
Try booting into safe mode, and remove the corrupted device drivers from the Device Manager. then restart normally, and reinstall the device drivers.
you should also check the drive manufacturer's website for an updated driver package.
Out of curiosity, what is the model of the drive you are having trouble with?
Is it U3 enabled?
oh! it have many problem, mayb ur os error, ur board, n ur USB port, n ur board have dust,
1- try to repare r setup ur window again
2- Clean up ur mainboard by water with soap, but care fully must expose it to the wide n sun, r with the dry air untill it dry, mean no water on it. if it still have water ur boare will lose.
