CrunchEEE - Why can't I see my USB flash or SD Card in filemanager?

Hi,

I have managed to install CrunchEEE on my ASUS EEE 701 4G.  It is working like a dream (well almost!) and I love it.  However, plug in my SD Card or USB flash Pen and I can't locate them anywhere on the system.  I have checked the Bios and they are both enabled.

How do I get at the files that are lurking on them?  They are both formatted FAT 32.

If I go to PCMan File Manager (root) - I can see the drives and the files, but whenever I try and run a file that is on them - nothing happens?

I am quite new to Linux so forgive me if it is an obvious question

Thanks in advance
Dan

Can you right-click them and Open With some application?

No, they are video files, Avi and MP4.  I try to open them with VLC, but nothing happens?  If I run Pupeee from a memory stick, and try to launch the same files they work fine?  It is concerning that the USB Mem Stick doesn't show up in File manager?
