Another possible issue - cheap usbshit. I have a usb sdram reader. Stick in a 2G card. Copy 100MB over. No problems. Copy 1GB over. Get lots of errors. Looks like card is defective. Until I put it in another card reader. That copied over all the files without any issues. Since it was photos, I would have been in trouble at home... :) -- http://www.glumbert.com/media/shift http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGvHNNOLnCk "This officer's men seem to follow him merely out of idle curiosity." -- Sandhurst officer cadet evaluation.
