Secured USB disk frequently asked questions. 1) When
I first used the secured USB disk as save disk, I inserted the USB disk into
the USB interface, system did not indicate that a new device was detected. Why
is that and how can it be solved? Answer: First, check that the secured USB disk and USB interface
connection isn’t too loose, if there isn’t any problem with the connection, it might be that the BIOS setting
in the system has not enable the USB interface. You will need to restart
computer, enter BIOS settings and enable USB interface. Another problem might
be that your system USB installation was not done properly or the installation
was proper but the driver that supports USB was not started. Please refer to
the relevant user guide and correctly install the USB system. 2) When
I am using the secured USB disk, can I pull out the USB disk from the USB
interface directly and switch the switch on it? Answer: If you switch from disable write status to enable write
status, yes; vice versa, you must wait until the light stops flashing first. 3) When
I first used the secured USB disk, the operation system is Windows 98, the auto
install logo appeared but could not install the driver program correctly. I
tried to re-plug the USB disk and install again, but system popped up the
message “install new hardware” and couldn’t install the USB disk
driver program, just like the first time. How can I solve this? Answer: Please follow the steps below: a)
Insert the USB disk into the USB interface: b)
Insert the driver into the computer; c)
Use the mouse and right click “my computer” à “propertiesà “device manager”; d)
Delete “unknown device” or “other device” (With yellow ? or !); e)
Click “refresh”; f)
Wait for a moment, and install wizard will appear, follow
the steps of the install wizard until installation is complete. 4) When
I first inserted the secured USB disk into the computer, the USB disk was
detected as “unknown device” or “other device”, when I tried to re-insert the USB disk into the computer, nothing
happened. How can I install the driver program properly? Answer: Go to “device manager” and delete “unknown device” or “other device”, click “refresh”, wait for a while and the USB disk will return normal. 5) Can
data or document deleted from the secured USB disk be recovered from the “recycle bin”? Answer: No, documents that have been deleted cannot be recovered. 6) Can I
create a new document file on the secured USB disk directly? Answer: No, but you can in the general area. 7) What
does the LED indicate on the secured USB disk? Answer: When the LED is light up, it means that secured USB disk has
accurately connected to computer however; there isn’t any data transmission at the moment. When LED flashes, it means
that secured USB disk is reading or writing data. However, in Windows XP
system, system will inspect the secured USB disk working status from time to
time. This causes data transmission and therefore even though USB disk is not
in working status, LED might flash slowly. 8) What
should I notice when I insert the secured USB disk? Answer: When you insert the secured USB disk, do not pull it out
straight away. Especially not pull out and plug again and again because there
is a necessary reaction time that the system requires. There should be a
difference time of 5 seconds or more. 9) Can I
insert more than one secured USB disks into the same computer? Answer: Yes, theoretically the maximum is 127. However, because the
driver disk uses 26 letters of the alphabet and there are already other drivers
using a few of them, you can only insert 23 secured USB disks (excluding
A,B,C). USB HUB also needs assistance. 10) When writing/reading secured
USB disk, can other programs be operating? Answer: Yes, but if you have installed “Norton AntiVirus”, especially when you are
in “Norton AntiVirus Auto-Protect Enabled” status, you cannot “format security disk”. This is because “Norton System Works” will regards secured actions to be Virus and will damage drivers.
To solve this, directly change the Norton System Works status to Disable
Auto-Protect (“Norton AntiVirus
Auto-Protect Disabled”). Then start “format security disk”. 11) Can the secured USB disk be
formatted under Windows 98/ME/ 2000/XP/ Mac OS 9.x/Mac OS X/Linux 2.4.x? Will
the application software be lost after formatting? Answer: Yes, but only the general and secured area recognized by the
system. As for the application software that is included in the USB disk, it
will not be lost because of formatting. 12) Can I use Windows ScanDisk to
scan the secured USB disk? Answer: Yes. 13) Can I pull out the secured
USB disk when the LED on it is flashing? Answer: No, LED flashes to represent that data is being transferred.
If you pull it out at this time, data may be lost or may cause damage to the
FAT graph and end up with a blue screen. 14) What will happen if an
application program like Microsoft Word opens document from the secured USB
disk and when it is not yet closed, the secured USB disk is pull out? Answer: There will be a blue screen, press “Esc” to escape. 15) Can the secured USB disk be
used on LAN? Answer: Yes 16) How can I use my secured USB
