Hi,
I run my elderly XP desktop isolated from the internet but use usbflash drives as a means of shifting folders between it and my connected Windows 7 desktop when necessary.
Strangely, whenever I connect a usb flash drive to the XP system, whether it's a USB1.1, USB2 or USB3 device, the Event Viewer reports an error "RSM could not load media in drive Drive 0 of library USB Flash Drive USB Device." However the devices work normally in every way - I can add files, copy or move files between the device and and desktop computer locations and so on. The error log is next to useless and the link included appears no longer to exist presumably because Microsoft gave up supporting domestic versions of XP over a year ago.
As I have suggested, despite the error, I have experienced no problems with usb flash drives, the internal card reader (part of original specifications) and external card readers all of which cause similar Event Viewer errors. External usb hard drives and Esata drives do not cause an error to be generated.
Hopefully this is something I can just ignore but it is a puzzle. I would welcome comments from the experts who contribute to this forum.
Thanks and regards, Kick.
