  • I assume that you are using OneCare. I've moved your post to the Backup topic folder. Have you ever backed up to this device before? If not, I suspect that your flash drive is not supported by OneCare backup due to capacity.

    Thank you for visiting the OneCare Program forums.

     

    Please visit this website as it has information on supported backup devices for OneCare as the usb flash drive

    that Stephen B. mentioned may not be supported:

    As I understand it, the minimum for the usb flash storage device is 8GB. 

     

    I hope this helps,
