More fun with my USB drive
I took the memory key to school and had my officemate run various Norton repair products on it. Disk doctor repaired something and now I can once again save files to the drive. I still can't see or access the old files, however, even though I can scan them for viruses with Norton, back them up with the XP backup utility, and restore the backed up files to my hard drive. If I check the properties of the folder on my hard drive where I restored the files, it tells me that there are 155 files present. However, I can't see any of them in windows explorer. I don't think I actually need any of them--the only thing that I didn't have stored elsewhere was the SSHRC proposal that I rewrote yesterday--but I'd like to know what happened to them before I entrust anything else to that drive.
