    Rite, i just got a free 32Mb memory Stick. Ill admit, its cheapo piece of equipment but id still like to get some use out of it, but this problem is a baffler!
    I tried it on my laptop and it was grand, new drive showed up, and i put some stuff onto it.(two small video clips, just to see if it was working). Then i went to try it on my PC.So i stick it in....and the PC restarts.Just like that. No warning or anything, just reboots.Weird.They both run Xp and all. Anyone got a clue whats happening?

    Use protection? *snicker*

    Sorry, couldn't help it. :p

    Could be the memory stick is faulty and is just crapping out on you.
