USB transfer hangs at 5 seconds to completion
Recently my USB drive that i have been using all this while hangs at 5 seconds to completion. I have to wait more than a minute for it to finish. I also tried cancelling the copying of the file and this will also take a minute or two to cancel. However after cancellation, the file surprisingly is successfully copied onto the USB drive.
I've googled everywhere for a solution but I couldn't get it to work. The USB drive is in NTFS format. I also tried installing KB976972 hotfix but it wasn't succesfull as i am not using an nVIDIA Chipset. I also updated all USB drivers from my laptop manufacturers website but the problem still occurs.
Is it a sign of a dieing drive?
