Windows XP USB Camera Storage Problems

Help me people......


For some reason, my camera is not recognized by my computer anymore.

Here is the situation:

My cousin bought this digital camera, which has SD memory card, when I hooked it up to my computer, it works great without driver, and the camera is great too. BUT, for some reason, when I tried it use it again yesterday, my Windows XP still detect the removable storage, and it shows that everything is working great, but when I go to Window Explorer yesterday, I couldn't see the removable storage for the secure digital card that's in my camera.

So problem is: Window says it's fine, but I can't see it in Windows Explorer or Disk Management anymore, any idea on what's the problem????

By the way, I tried the camera on my brother's computer, and it works great, it detected the storage card and shows up in Explorer and everything, so what do you guys think????

I have the exact same problem and solve it by either
plugging and unplugging the USB memory stick several times or wiggling the memory stick slightly - I think I have a strained USB port but can't see any damage.

You could also try going into your software and trying to open the drive from there - sounds ridiculous I know, but worked for me once.
Good luck
