Hello, Thanks. I now have the latest lg installer. It's also the latest firmware, the device is showing up under xp and 7, i see the cdrom portion and the removable drive drives e: and f:. On a non-u3 drive i could put an autorun.inf file on it, which when inserted would pop up a dialog box, hit enter once and the default program, in this case an NVDA screen reader would run. This is not the case with this u3 drive, is there a way for autorun? Thanks. Dave. On 6/25/10, Andrew Hodgson <andrew@hodgsonfamily.org> wrote:
Hi,
I had to go through this to get the System Access working on it.
The older Sandisks don't work with Windows 7 as a U3 drive, these were drivers below a specific firmware revision. Actually they did work, just that Windows didn't recognise the CD-rom portion of the drive, so didn't do the autorun thing.
If on the new drive you used the LPInstaller.exe to install the U3 stuff, you need to ensure you are on the latest version of the software by following the article in:
http://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3682/sno/0
I had to run the utility several times before I was on the latest version.
Once I was on the latest version I could install stuff no problem to the newer USB flash device.
Thanks. Andrew.

Hello, I've got a new sandisk u3 smart flash drive. I'm trying to install u3 compatible programs on it, but they're not installing. When i initially plugged in the drive u3 was not on there, i had to download the u3 software, run it and now it's showing up. This drive also came with password encryption, which i'm also not seeing. Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks. Dave.
