Computers with a Windows operating system (OS) will find their computers generally recognize any such devices automatically. However, there are times scenarios when it may not recognize external hard drives or pen drives and they do not show up in My Computer. This is typically an issue with the Windows OS where the USB ports could have been disabled. The usual solution to this problem is to manually re-enable the USB ports by altering the properties of the relevant registry keys. 

If the laptop does not accept or detect any of the pen drives,memory Cards, then you have to change the registry value in hexadecimal for the computer to accept the USB Drive.
