Are you trying to make an Explorer (hopefully) backup rather than a Home backup?
If on a pc, try this:
Start--Run--cmd
and in the box that opens:
chkdsk x: /f where x: represents the drive of the tomtom unit/ _________________ David |

And I was trying to help.
Are you on a pc or a Mac? And if a pc, then the steps I provided will verify the physical validity of the drive _________________ David |
