Try going to Device Manager, finding the USB controllers, doing an Uninstall on them, and then let Windows rediscover them (reboot or have it do a Scan for Hardware Changes). Any good? :confused:

Also, since the Windows/PC Software forum is for software & apps, this topic is being transplanted to Operating Systems.

I'm thinking it's a strange parallels thing, as I've never had USB drive issues with 2K server.

Parallels as in the virtualization software? :confused I didn't see any reference to that by the OP so I'm not sure what youre refering to...
