Question about that Palm hotsync comment from this above topic...

I have a question about Top reasons for random, fatal crashes in Windows XP and Windows 2000:

or at least thats the article that led me to this site and my problem was also mentioned in the annoyances section....:-)....i just bought a fuji flash USB drive (64Mb hard drive space) for a class I am taking where I have to have files with me in different places, and I have no laptop. Whenever I plug this device (or any other similiar flash device I suppose, Ive tried another brand and it did the same thing) win xp will beep and in the corner it will notify me that it found new hardware, then i will get a flash of blue and a restart...then i get the system xml and minidump error message....serous error system recovered. other people have gotten that error with ati radeon cards and other things and i read i should get service pack one for windows xp, but then upon further reading was told that the service pack didnt help. I am using other USB devices such as a scanner and a game controller and this flash drive is the first instance of this problem. i dont have a USB hub. btw with one brand i was able to use the drive after restarting but once i re-inserted it to use it again i would crash... with the other drive it would be stuck in a cycle of restarting. any help would be great. I am very confused and about to fail a class :-)

Sometimes all that is required is for you to restart the computer with the USB drive installed in the port. Try that...
