During the initial installation of a USB device (most often external drives, although not always), windows vista does not locate or install drivers for the device.

Windows vista might report that there is "no driver found for your device" or will not display the pre-installed Vista OEM driver, you will still get "no driver found .." error. This is most likely caused by a corrupted INFCACHE.1 file. This file stores the location of drivers and their INF files. This file is hidden, has restricted access, and can be found in "c:windowsinf".

By deleting the INFCACHE.1 file and it will force the windows to rebuild that file while next time windows searches for drivers. To delete this file, you have to set the security permissions of it to allow Full Control for the User Group Administrators or Full Control for your user account. Please follow the directions below:

1. Open My Computer and in the address bar, type C:windowsinf and press Enter.
2. Find and then right click on the file named INFCACHE.1.
3. Select Properties > Select Security tab > Click on Edit > Click on Add to add User Groups.
4. Type Administrators in the user groups field and click on OK.
5. Set Administrators to Full Control and click on OK.
6. Move or Delete the file INFCACHE.1.
7. Reinstall the device to force the windows to rebuild the INFCACHE.1 file.

Note: Do not reinstall the same external USB device that you were having issues detecting before. Connect another USB device other than the one that Vista had an issue detecting.

This detection issue can happen several times in a row, but repeat the steps 1-7 and try again until this works.

You may receive this error while you installing the driver for bluetooth in your laptop (or) connecting a bluetooth device to your laptop.


Solution:

• While installing the bluetooth driver, please make sure that you must have a bluetooth enabled device like mobile phone, headset, mouse etc near your laptop as discoverable so that the laptop recognize the nearby bluetooth device and complete the installation of the bluetooth peripheral device driver in your laptop.

• While connecting a bluetooth device, please make sure that the bluetooth adapter is ON. If either your laptop discovers your mobile device (or) the mobile device discovers your laptop then the solution is easy. You can try sending some files from your laptop or mobile device which discovers first and vice versa so that the bluetooth peripheral device driver installs completly.

If either your laptop or your mobile device was not discovered then the solution might be complex.
