OnlySunshine Posted June 6, 2013 Author Share Posted June 6, 2013 The requisite drivers for a usb drive are usually on the drive itself anyway. Yep, that's why I was so confused because the drivers automatically installed on other computers (and it still works on my mom's) and it won't even come up on this one. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arfink Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 My best guess is you maybe just have a daemon crashed. Restart the computer, then plug the drive in and wait for a bit. Sometimes it takes a few minutes for the driver to install itself, and Windows 8 doesn't make a big announcement about how it's installing the driver.

LOL, I read that as: Maybe just have a demon crashed. :hehe2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arfink Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 LOL, I read that as: Maybe just have a demon crashed. :hehe2: It's pronounced the same. ;) And means the same too. Except in computer speak daemon is the name given to a process that runs without the user's direct intervention and hidden from view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
