    I have a 2Gb sandisk cruzer titanium that I am using with a T61 on Vista home premium. I can transfer anything up to about 100mb successfully. But when I attempt to transfer something like a 700mb to 900mb avi file I have problems. If it transfers at all I will get a transfer rate of 2mb/s at most (usually its only 1mb/s or less) when it should be around 9mb/s. sometimes it will not even begin transferring and the USB drive will just shut off. anybody else expirienceing problems like these? is this a vista, lenovo, or hardware problem? its quite frustrating.

    Would try a different flash drive just to be sure. Also, format it NTFS?
