BleepingComputer.com: Mass Storage Controller

hello,
i was uninstalling unwanted stuff the other day and accidently uninstalled my mass storage controller.
now when i start windows i get a message saying its uninstalled.

i cant find the drivers..

i cant find the brand of device it is either.. says: unknown in device manager

where can i find the drivers for my mass storage controller ?

System manufacturer and model?

Actually...I think that USB controllers all use the same driver, which should be available in XP's store of drivers.

Have you rebooted the system to see if XP will install them?

Louis

yes, ive restarted a few times, and it trys to find the drivers but says it cant find them....
i put in the disk that came with computer but it dident find them there either.

system manufacturer and model: says unknown

since im not on xp, is there a vista store of drivers that works for mass storage devices ?

I can't answer that, I haven't installed Vista yet .

Hang on until someone who knows answers.

Louis

Maybe the drivers on the CD that came with your device were not in the format WIndows searches for. Usually, the drivers for Mass storage device(my experience) come in an installer format (.exe). So look for the driver installer on the CD.

I wonder, you do not know the manufactuter of the mass storage device? If its USB/Bluetooth connected you should know. Else have a peek inside your computer.

Tip: download Everest or SiSoft Sandra, they will tell you about which devices are connected to your computer and their manufacturer and model.

if i do system restore will that get the driver back ?
or is it gone since i uninstalled it?
