Hi

I have a 16GB USB memory stick and when I plug it in the system sees it as such. When I try to mount it I get a error special devise does not exist. not mounted.

I have looked for solution but none that have helped. The trouble being a newby is that even basic task seem complex.

any I dears anyone?

No need to type anything. __{{emoticon}}__ It is just a 2 gig stick I have not wiped yet.
