Computer Q&A Board  /  Other Computer Problems  /  USB Flash Drive doesn't show all files
Posted by: welsh793, December 2nd, 2006, 11:32am
I have a few flash drives which don't show all the files that I have tried to transfer from one computer to another. One is a Cruzer mini 1.0 GB; the other  Cyclone 32 M, and older one.  With the Cruzer, I copied two files both 4 meg. to it from a HP 750n Pavilion with XP SP2. It has both version of USB
  I am trying to move the file to a computer. no name, with XP SP2, That computer doesn't see the files on the Cruzer.  Also I have a Dell that doesn't see the fiiles either. It only have Version 2 but should be able to see either format?
   I tried to use software that came with the flash drive that might have different drivers but XP give a message saying that it doesn't need driver information.
  Question:  Why doesn't the other computer see these files and how do I make them visible?
  Any help would be appreciated. :-/
Thanks in advance,
J. Welsh

1.  Have you plugged it back into the original computer to make sure it's still there?

2.  Make sure it's not marked as a hidden file by mistake.

3.  You may have a faulty thumb drive.

Perhaps others have some additional ideas.
