    That's an odd problem. Have you run a check disk lately?? Possibly file corruption?? Possibly a hard drive failure?? Maybe run a hard drive diagnostic to be sure it's ok. And if the drive is ok, then run a check disk from windows.

    What program are you using to extract compressed files??

    Also, be sure you are extracting to the Verbatim drive and not some other source that doesn't have enough room. Just a suggestion.

    Are you extracting the files in the right location, the right drive? Double check the target path for the extraction.
