hmm, sounds like a driver error, try reinstalling the drivers from the manufacturors website. That might clear it up. And if it doesn't work, find another computer, offload your documents, then reformat it, place the documents back on it, and try again.

This is not entirely true. Only WinME and later OS's don't require drivers for USB applications. All olders OS's do.

If this error occurs on more then one computer best thing would be to cut your losses and format the device. Has it ever worked properly?
