HI,

Make sure that your USB port is a USB 2 and that any necessary drivers for USB 2 have been loaded. Your new device may only work on a USB 2 port.

If you do not have a USB 2 port you may need to purchase same for your computer. Make sure theat your new device can work on either USB1 or USB 2 then proceed as necessary.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your advice. I should have said that it worked perfectly before however, no longer does and all I want is to get the data off the Pen Drive

Appreciate your assistance
