    USB Problems
    « on: September 03, 2008, 05:15:37 AM »
    Up untill two days ago my second largest usb worked okay.   Its a pny attache 1 gb, I cnat move files on but off an it wont remove the files off of it.  It says write only or something like you would a floppy to keep data from being removed.  But I looked an didnt find any switch an I tried formatting it with only the same error.

        So it's the same as the other Flash Drives.

        Have you been using the Safely Remove Feature or not?

                  All right. This sounds just like your other Flash Drives.

                  "Write Protect" or something, right?
