i have recently baught a 16GB HP V135w usb flash drive.
when i plug it into any usb port on my pc it starts installing the drivers as normal and tells me the device is installed succesfully and is now ready to use but when i search for the device it is no where to be found.

it does appear under device manager as an unknown device and displays as an error code 43.

there is no lock device on the card and drivers are up to date.
i have tried using this card on a few different systems and its the same detail.
i have also tried using different types of HP software to resolve the problem but still no joy. :(

any suggestions?
 
im currently in the process of moving house so i have misplaced it or possibly thrown it out :(

EDIT= the receipt
