32gig flash disk problem.. Partition experts?

To begin with, there is no 32GB flashdrive, you are not the first to get caught by this SCAM. It is actually a 4GB flashdrive. The largest so far is 16GB.

Is your flash disk formatted to NTSB format? That may be part of your problem if it's not. Are you doing a backup of your hard drive, trying to make it one file, or are you just moving files around. Any files larger than 4GB will not go on the drive unless it is in NTSB format. I've run into that problem myself when downloading images of DVDs to burn. When it got to 3.99GB it would shut down the download and warn that the disk drive was full, even though there was still about 25GB of space left when I checked.

Formatting your flash drive should be about the same as doing a hard drive. Click the following link to find out how to do that:
