    Hello!

    I have a Toshiba 1GB USB which was working fine up until a week or so ago. I cannot create new files or folders in it. I have tried on four different computers (the Vista box, which gives this error, an XP machine at school and two XP machines at the public library).

    Under Windows Vista, I get this message:


    Thanks for any help!
    That's Peedy over there in my avatar, playing psychiatrist. Peedy (C) Microsoft, not me. Although I do like him!

    Try copying everything to your computer (backing everything up) and formatting the drive.
