1) no yellow exclamations in device manager
2) same thing happens on all usb ports
3) shows up and works perfectly in safe remove hardware in ALL other computers
4) already tried reformatting
5) same thing happens with my memory card slots, the memory cards used to show up in the safely remove hardware window, but not anymore.
