RE: Errors copying photos to 1 GB memory cards

Hi Monica,
I don't know if this may be the case, however from years ago working with
DOS, I ran into a case where I could not copy files to a hard drive.

The problem was that the directory was limited to a specific number of
entries at the root level.

Once I created subdirectories and populated them, I had no problem putting
all the files on the drive ... they just couldn't be at the root (c:\)
level.

Might this be happening on the memory stick?
