Tata Indicom Internet.Not detected!!!!

[harpoon]

I have a Compaq M2000 Presario. Today I got myself a Tata Indicom data card (USB drive) .While tried to install the same, to my utter surprise & disgust it says that "F" is not a valid path.
I tried with my pen drive & it worked perfectly as before, being detected as the F drive.
Next I tried to install the Tata, onto a friends laptop & it was installed in a breeze.
I am totally at my wits end.
Is it a driver problem or something else. Please help urgently with solutions.

Whats ur OS and your friends OS ?

Did you install the driver before plugging in the usb modem ?

Did you try the usb modem in lunux ? (you will not need any drivers ! Yes that is correct and if it works in linux, you can make sure your USB port is ok)

Thanks for viewing & replying. I have installed it successfully.It was a case of virtually creating a "F" drive. Thanks.
