Question [Q] USB storage doesn't show up in (some) Windows 7

Hi, I have a Nexus One with CyanogenMod 7.0.3 installed. My desktop computer is a Windows 7 computer with the Android SDK installed. My laptop is a Windows 7 computer without the SDK.
When I plug in the phone in the Laptop, and turn on USB storage on the phone, I see the phone contents. But on the Desktop I only see the phone under Device Manager.
I even uninstalled the SDK, but no change. I used both the original cable and other cable. Updated drivers. I'm at loss.

this happened to me too. A quick fix is to disable then enble the driver in device property. A permanent fix is to wipe and flash the phone again.
Hope that helps

You also may need to check and see what drive letter your device is connecting to. If your phone defaults to drive "G" and "G" was already being used by some other connected device, you will not see your phone. Check it under disk management.
