Is it just me, or does everybody hav problems with flaky USB hardware? I recently unplugged my USB key, because it was already disconnected (according to my computer, trying to make directories on it that already existed), so after plugging it in again, I am keeping it as an unreliable backup...like aren't they all, anyway? My two month old USB hard drive is about the same way, only worse, because the blue light on it reliably goes out when I access more than five files at once, so it also, will usually be disconnected. I recently copied everything to my SATA drive (C--always too small), and only recently did I realize that FRACTINT should not be working with drive C, because it is NTFS. It does, anyway. So, I am thinking that either FracTint has been upgraded to support NTFS, or NTFS (SP3) haz been upgraded to support software that expects FAT32. Or, maybe the problem is that I haven't tried batch files (simplgif), yet. Or, maybe I was misinformed in the first place, and FracTint was always compatible with NTFS. After all, I don't know any other software with the same (reputed?) problem of incompatibility with NTFS. I am certainly glad that I don't need to repartition drive C.
