| | W7x64Pro Flash drive re-format Hello, Great forum ! Most everything going great w/ Windows 7. Having an issue w/ Flash Thumb Drives. W/ XP my 8 & 16 gb drives would reformat in seconds. W/ Windows 7 it is taking a few min....like 5, 7 or more? Thoughts on this? fmg |

| | Hello, Make sure "Quick Format" is checked. Otherwise it does a full format, which can take hours. ~JK |

| | Could the flash driving I'm working w/ right now just be failing? Its an 8gb & shows 7.63gb in My Computer but will not accept (too large) a 4.14gb WINrar file? fmg |

| | FAT32 cannot store a file bigger than 4GB. Format with NTFS instead. And the drive showing up as7.63 is perfectly normal. |
