  7. I had to remove all other usb stuff, wait for the prompt from the software and then insert the cruzer into the usb port listed as the frist/primary one to get it to work (my laptop has 3 ports and of course I had to try 3 times to see which one it worked in).

    Thanks!

  9. I get the same problem with erik. I have tried inserting the drive after the application instructed me to do so, but it still doesn’t work as “Please insert a u3 smart drive”. Is it because I tried cut and paste the LaunchU3 program on the drive???

    I really need help to solve the problem. I don’t need u3!!
