D975XBX2/Bad Axe 2 USB issue? Large Files.

[unclebobuk]

Hi,
just wondered if yhere was a known issue with the Bad Axe 2 and USB storage devices. I've tried with a number of devices (both flash drives and laptop hd's) to copy over largeish files (4gb+) but they won't copy over. They complain the destination drive is too small even if there's loads of space. Is this a known issue with USB support on the bad-axe 2?


thanks.
Bob.

thanks for the replies. The destinations are FAT32 which explains the reason for the problems. Its actually a 16GB USB Pen Drive I picked up recently. I have tried to format it as NTFS but for whatever reason it will only let me do it as FAT32... must be something to do with the USB driver I guess.

Oh well.

If anyone has a PEN Drive with NTFS perhaps they'd like to share experiences.

thanks

Bob.

Hi,
thanks for the info on setting the performance. I did try this just now and unfortunately it made no difference. XP still won't let me delete the existing partition on the drive and make an NTFS one...

Oh well... no worries as I can RMA the drive for a refund but having a 16gb pen drive on which I can carry around all my tunes and movies would have been nice.

Regards,
Bob.
