    So do you have something installed that's not getting recognized?? Listing your hardware specs would be helpful. It could be anywhere from USB 2.0 drivers being needed to memory cards.

    I don't really have all the specs, it hasn't ever done this before - from what I remember from building it, it's a

    ASUS P4S533 MOBO
    p4 1.6a
    radeon 8500 AIW with latest drivers (this is when the problem occured)

    As soon as I installed the latest drivers for the video it started happening

    Did you install the chipset drivers?
    Did you install the ATI drivers or use the ones in Windows?
