Finally I have received an answer from a retail company, Claes Ohlson. There is a hardware thing that is missing on older computers that explains why Kingston 3.0 will not work. There will make no difference if I reinstall Windows. Either Kingston service or Zalman service could give me that answer. Nor could Microsoft Community give that answer. So I close the issue.
How to install a driver routine for USB Kingston Data Traveler 100 G3
I did not succeed in getting the USB memory Kingston Data Traveler 100 G3 work on one of my computers (Windows 7).
But I did actually on another computer and there I found that driver is signed by Microsoft Windows. Version is 6.12.7601.17577. The date is 2006-06-21.
So, I only want a site from where I could download the driver routine.

2014-06-16T20:08:25+00:00 Hello Ratandeep,
I cannot see any possibility to attach a word document so I just write down the message I receive first
time I try to install the USB stick:
Enhetsdrivrutinerna installerades inte.
Kontakta enhetstillverkaren om du vill ha hjälp med hur enheten installeras.
Data Traveler 3.0 x Misslyckades
In English:
Drive routine wasn't installed.
Contact the manufacter if you want help how the device should be installed.
Data Traveler 3.0 x Failed
I have no problem with other USB devices (for example Kingston Data Traveler 2.0).
On my wife´s computer it is no problem with Data Traveler 3.0. It was there I found the name of the driver.
Method 1 and Method 2 didn't help me. The troubleshooting report told me that there is problem with a driver routine. I was also informed that Windows Update didn't install driver routines automatically.
Yes, I know there is a problem with a driver routine. Is there not a possibility to download it?

2014-06-23T14:01:53+00:00 I am sorry. None of the links work. Kingston refers to my computer, Komplett Zalman. When I talked to them they suggested that I should re-install Windows 7 in my computer. Perhaps that is a solution because I also have problem with Windows Update (refering to another issue in the category Windows Update. Security Update for Windows 7 - Failures

2014-06-18T15:06:45+00:00 Kingston refers to the system KOMPLETT GFC-01051, which I don't know what it is or what it have to do with me.
Their support says:
You have to contact the manufacturer of your system KOMPLETT GFC-01051 not the USB drive manufacturer.
You will need to download the chipset drivers.
I am unable to find your system online therefore cannot provide you with a link.
If you contact them, they should be able to guide you.
Could anyone tell me what it is?
I have a Zalman computer, Windows 7, ServicePack 1, Processor AMD Athlon II X4 630 Processor 2,80 GHz.

2014-06-11T08:00:00+00:00 Hello Leif,
Thank you for posting your question on Microsoft community forum.
I would like to know some information about the issue so that we could help you better.
- Do you receive any error message or code when you say, "I did not succeed in getting the USB memory Kingston Data Traveler 100 G3 work on one of my computers"?
- Does your computer recognize other USB devices?
When we connect any USB device to a computer, Windows automatically finds USB drivers. So, we do not need to find any particular version of USB driver.
I would suggest you try following methods and check if it helps.
Method 1:
Please run hardware and devices troubleshooter.
Refer:
Open the hardware and devices troubleshooter
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Open-the-Hardware-and-Devices-troubleshooter
Please also run this Microsoft fixit and check.
Refer:
Diagnose and fix Windows USB problems automatically
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Windows_USB_diagnostics
If it does not work, then use method 2.
Method 2:
Please use suggestions provided in this Microsoft knowledge based article and check the issue.
Refer:
Error: “USB Device not recognized” when you try to access a USB external hard drive

I hope this information helps.
Please do let us know if you need any further assistance.
Thank you
