Hi

While trying to copy a file to the Memory Stick Duo, an error occurred. The file now shows up as a 0 byte file.

However, it is also showing up as not deleteable!!! Also, all the other files have also become not deleteable!!!

I have tried:

a) Formatting the memory stick duo through Control Panel and also through Epocware's File Manager on the PC

b) Individually deleting the files

c) Copying the same named files from the PC over the top of the files

NOTHING seems to work!!!

Is there any other way to clear the contents of a memory stick? Shorting it?

HELP!!!

Just to make sure, you haven't 'protected' the memory stick have you?

If you are unable to format the stick then get it replaced - simple as that.

Regards,
