Whenever I start up my computer, I instantly have a tab appearing that is named update Properties, then it says...
Type: Application
Origin: a number here many digits long
Then I have the option in the middle of the tab to Restore if I do that it doesnt do anything.
Then as clickable commands at the bottom, I get Ok and Cancel.
The only way I have found to get rid of this is the USB Mass Storage Device icon when I start up... although I dont have a USB Storage Device in a USB slot, this still comes up. If I click on "STOP" the USB Storage Device it stops and says I can safely remove the USB Storage Device I click ok and the update properties tab and USB Storage Device is gone and all is well until the next time I reboot.
Any ideas how to get rid of it? Its driving me nuts!
I havent added any hardware but I did add things like Ad Aware and Spyware blaster around the same time this started.
I have no external devices
BIOS is set back to defaults
System Restore doesnt go back far enough for me when the problem started.
In Device Manager there is one There is one USB Mass Storage device that has a yellow caution sign with it it. I tried before updating the driver, that didnt work, I tried Disabling that didnt work and I tried uninstalling and then letting OS reinstall it and that didnt work.
In MSCONFIG I dont see anything that would be Mass Storage Device update tab on startup...unless it could be named something else...
*Update* In Safe Mode this does not appear so I dont know what that means.
I also forot to mention that I get the error:
service.exe. - No Disk
There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive \Device\Harddisk1\DR1
\Harddisk2\DR2
\Harddisk3\DR3
\Harddisk4\DR4
I have to click continue on that all 4 times before I can click stop on the USB Mass Storage Device...its all messed up. Dont know why. I plugged an MP3 player in the USB slot once and I use it for my Ipod but thats it.. never had another problem until 3 weeks ago or so roughly
If you have the motherboard disc, have you tried updating driver in device manager searching from disc
Possibly install motherboard chipsetdrivers if you have the motherboard disc, any USB, card reader,webcam, bluetooth drivers,if you have any of these devices built in. If you have no disc suggest downloading drivers from motherboard website.
