Dear Brian et Al.:

I did NOT succed - YET - in getting my own USB to recognise the MSD -
'cause the Chris Wohl...th driver hasn't been 'accepted'??? (BTW, I'm
trying on Warp 3 without any FPs applied, so far. I'll soon see IF they
make ANY difference - but that's for another day.)

Anyway, according to what I just read, you DO have your drivers
'registering' at boot. Good! MAYBE, the others' suggestions about
formatting will make things work for you. 

I have had two CompUSA 'drives' that do NOT get 'seen' by ALL systems
that I plug them into. =Some systems will NOT 'see' two CompUSA
'drives' that I have. SO, it could be the Hw but "PNY Attache" 'drives'
are a fairly good brand. All others of mine are SanDisk Cruzers.


Lastly, I just asked Mike Snyder where he gets / got MR/2 ICE. I note
you're a PMMail user. Where (URL) does one get a copy of that,
now-a-days?

Sincerely,

Thomas Clayton
