Gizmo! Jr. 4 GB not working in Vista x64

Hi.

I love my little gizmo!, but after a recent OS migration to 64-bit Vista, the system looks for a driver and eventualy fails to do so, rendering the drive inaccessible. The drive functions on other machines(all 32-bit though). I have tried to blow away the partition and let Vista handle it, to no avail. Any ideas on this would be appreciated. Thaks in advance.

Re: Gizmo! Jr. 4 GB not working in Vista x64

 

Hi AJ,

The Gizmo should just be plug and play and no drivers are required for it.  It works exactly the same on a 64bit system as it would on a 32bit system without having to repartition the drive or reformat.

The problem seems to be a software/drive issue so please make sure you have the latest motherboard/chipset drivers installed and that they are compatible with Vista 64bit. Also, ensure that Vista is up to date with all patches etc (I.E. Service Pack 2).

I hope this helps!
