We also have a problem formatting an external USB 160GB Acomdata drive, (no
code 10), drive is always visible, healthy, online, but not formatted,
originally came FAT32, but could not backup to it. Using XP SP2, USB ports
directly on computer, (no hub or card). Problem is"Format did not complete
successfully", either quick or full format, deleted partion and renewed and
attempted format numerous times. System also does not read a USB 80GB Fat32
drive with Jpegs on it (blurry streaks and crashes), where other XP SP1 and
SP2 machines and my ME unit have no problem.Have updated chipset drivers on
my 2 year old P4 HT (Gigabyte MB) machine
Sofar have not found an answer in this or other forums, nor in Jacks
solution(why not show us the way)
