Can't you repartition it? Use My Computer -> Manage (Right click menu) -> Disk Management?
I don't think WinXP supports partitioned pen drives(?)My main problem is, I cannot get rid of the U3 system. The pen drive acts like it has got 2 separate drives. The U3 stuff keeps getting copied over from the 4MB (CDFS) into the 980MB area everytime I insert the pen drive. Which is incredibly annoying!
The 4MB is 'Read Only' and therefore I cannot remove the files.
I tried disabling 'AutoPlay' to stop the software running but my XP installation ignores all my settings (i.e TAKE NO ACTION).
jfk,
Thanks. I'll take a crack at it.
If that fails the things going on eBay ASAP.
Naughty,
Looks like I picked up the AOL equivalent of a Pen Drive.
Behold .. the ugly (and massive) popup window:
