"Parameter is incorrect" installing driver for any USB storage dev
Hi,
I'm getting a "parameter is incorrect" error when Vista Business RTM is installing ANY USB storage device, whether flash or HDD based. I've tried several of each and none work. It appears to find the device driver software and goes to install it and that's when the error occurs. Vista Business RTM was an upgrade to Windows XP Pro SP2, rather than a clean install. This is the information from the error report: Description Windows encountered a problem while installing device drivers for your USB Flash Disk USB Device Problem signature Problem Event Name: PnPDriverInstallError Architectu x86 Win32 error: 00000057 Inf name: disk.inf Driver Package hash: e503a4f1d821a50e8760410a457dfaea2365371a DDInstall section name: disk_install OS Version: 6.0.6000.2.0.0.256.6 Locale ID: 1033 Extra information about the problem Bucket ID: 12135484 I understand that this might be more a common issue than I thought. Has anyone found a solution to this yet? All of my colleagues have done a clean install and have no issue with USB storage devices. I wonder if this is as a result of the upgrade, some old drivers or permissions issues causing the problem? Regards, Paul |
