When ever I insert my (4GB my flash) pen driveinto my PC and any other PC I am
unable to open it. The message that am prompted with is “insert disk into drive”
As it’s clear from the message in quotes, this problems occur when you insert when your removable drive to your USB port, it detects your removable drive but throws an error window saying – Please Insert a Disk into Drive \ Device when you try to open it.
One of the most possible cause of this issue when you have a removable drive which try to get a drive letter which is already reserved.
This could happen due to the default behavior of Windows XP when you may have e: drive assigned to a network drive or other hardware drive and removable pen drives tries to occupy e: drive as drive letter.
