                                   I have a 16G thumb drive formatted with FAT32 using DFSee as the tool to make       that happen.

I've got a directory on my local HD that I'm using       XCOPY to save off on to the thumb  drive.

Part of the way through       the copy, the system will report it is unable to close the source and target       file.  It can routinely fail at the same place.  And once in a while       it gets farther before  reporting this error.  It happens with the       OS/2 Command and the 4OS2  Command applications.

I'm thinking       that the USB thumb (& system) is still trying to perform the write       operation when the XCOPY command tries to close the file.  RSYNC program       has a similar problem and has failed at the same place too.

RSYNC       doesn't fail (nor does the XCOPY) if the destination is a USB Hard drive,       or a local SATA disk.

Has anyone else experienced this problem?        And if so, how did you get around it.

I'm using the eCS         2.1 delive       red USB stack except for the mouse & keyboard.
