1. Try switching port if allready haven't.
2. Reeinstall the driver.
* The driver for the USB pen (if it followed)
3. Please tell me, link to the USB pen site.

You could try formatting the pen drive from a command prompt: Connect it to a machine that does recognize it, note the drive letter assigned to it, then go to Start>Run and type into the dialog box, without the quotes, "Command" (or, on some systems, "cmd"), then hit <Enter> or click "OK".

A black-and-white Command Box should open; at the command prompt (the binking cursor), type, without the quotes, "cd <drive letter>:\ (where "<drive letter>" is the drive in question). Then type, without the quotes, "format <drive letter>, hit <Enter> and confirm.

See: MS DOS Format Command
