HD-PE320U2 incorrect hardware id

[smn454]

   

The drive is accessible from any windows system I plug it into and all the data is accessible.  My problem is that the drive is recognized as Generic External USB Device instead of BUFFALO HD-PEU2 USB Device.  Because of this I cannot install or use turbousb or the eco manager.  When I first got the drive everything worked on my Vista 32-bit notebook but somewhere along the line something went wrong.  The only thing that I changed is that I formatted the drive to NTFS.  I am in the process of backing up the data and will try formatting back to FAT32 with the BUFFALO formatter to see if that does anything.

 

Update:

Forgot to mention that other usb drives report their correct id on my pc and the others that I have tested with.

 

Update:

No luck with the format.   I got the device using Chipgenius and it gave me this:

 

PnP Device ID: VID = 13FD PID = 1840
Serial Number: 533142554A44305337313737

If anyone else has a HD-PEU2 can you run Chipgenius to see what info you get.
