When I insert a USB to my computer, it says it's connected but I don't see the 'Removable Disk' Icon in the My Computer window. I have to now go to my Control Panel>Portable Media Devices. It annoys me since I have to drag my things to my desktop, and not be able to view it directly. Also, my My Computer window layout is really strange T-T Please help! Thanks~!!

Right click my computer and arrange icons by > Type and check show in groups... should look normal again there.

Is this an issue with your Zen vision? Or normal thumb drives?

I want you to go to start, control panel, administrative tools, computer management, and go down to the disk management. Make sure the removable drive has a drive letter of its own and it doesn't have issues.

Short of that, you can try a system restore or see if you can reinstall the drivers to see if that does anything.

I tired everything you said. I got the arrangement back to normal (thanks =]). But the icon for the thumb drive won't show. It's a normal USB stick (OCZ Rally2 4GB and Kingmax 1GB). Thanks for the help~!!!
