Jane:
What might have happened is this:
Some USB driver install files do not actually INSTALL the drivers, but rather they
just extract the driver files to a folder on your hard drive. It is quite possible
that your driver files are in a folder on your hard drive and when it asked for a
CD, or the location of the driver files, you were supposed to point it to those files.
Try this: Go to your driver install file, and click (or double-click) on it again,
then pay attention. The very next screen that comes up should show the 'default'
location where it will extract the files to, unless you manually type in a different
location. If that is what you see, then close that out, and go to where it asks you
for the location of the driver files, and point it to the folder you saw.
As an example, my Lexar USB driver install does not actually install the driver files
but rather it just extracts them to folder c:\jdusb2
Then when I plug in my flash drive it pops up the window asking for where the driver
files are at.
This is why I asked what make and model you had...
