USB not detecting

[Technology1]

my new fully built computer isnt detecting a 1gb centon memory stick III flash usb drive. the funny thing is that it was working the first time i installed my os...now it just tells me unkown device when plugged in, when i try to install the drivers it tells me that it couldnt finish the install...try again later...ive tried everything even downloading the drivers from the company's site....any ideas on what next?

Well that does seem like a bit of a situation, have u tried reinstalling the usb drivers?

So the memory stick worked the very first time when you plug it in to the USB port but not now? Make sure that the drivers have been installed from the Mobo CD, that you've done already. Check the Device manager to see if there are any ! or ? next to the USB Host Controller. If there is then the drivers are not loaded or there is a possible problem with the device. Check in BIOS and make sure that the default setting of 8 Devices and the HI-Speed option are enabled. Also make sure that the 1.1usb and 2.0usb with Legacy support are enabled. These drivers are included in the Windows Update SP2 full version.

if the drivers are corrupt in any way it may still show up in device maneger as a yellow ? mark remove the ? or delete whatever i cant remember.
and reboot system it should pick up the usb device and ask for installation disk as you will probably know see how it goes.good luck

Well there might be a problem with the USB stick. Check the USB connection if there's something broken if not try what the others have said.
