    Anyone familiar with MS DOS/Windows and the FAT16/32 file system?

    When I grab one of the memory sticks from one of the cars, the first thing I will do is verify which file system they use. After that, I'll experiment with the proposed solution and see how it works. Finally, I'll report my findings here. Thanks, gang.

    Hmm, I may have to sit down and try that. Hey--these are desperate times!

    Anyone familiar with MS DOS/Windows and the FAT16/32 file system?

    I'm sure it'll take longer than that to transfer ~ 13 gigs onto each memory stick, especially considering I'll have to do it twice. Even still, it's coming down to the principle of the thing. There's got to be a better way... and I would like to find it. Besides, that would mean that whenever...

    Anyone familiar with MS DOS/Windows and the FAT16/32 file system?

    I have aftermarket stereos in both the Jeep and the Suburban, both with USB input ports. Rather than buy iPods or the like, I instead use a pair of 16gig memory sticks (one for each vehicle) with my mp3 collection. IIRC, they are formatted to FAT16 (though it might be NTFS). In general, this...

    I have a few photos and some video clips still in my camera. When I have time, I'll transfer them to my laptop and see what is worth posting here. As for everyone else posting pictures and videos, thank you!

    I had put off asking him about it due to my commitment to you... so now I'll have to check with him. Thanks, though.

    Central Utah Could anyone do Hanging Tree on Sat Oct 5th or Sun Oct 6th?

    Since we're getting a good-sized group, does this mean there are a few rigs with seat(s) available? I told Rockreligious I would let him ride with me--and I will stick to that offer if necessary--but if someone else can give him a ride then I might bring another passenger with me. (I only have...

    New to almost all of it

    Welcome to RME! I'm glad you found out about us. Then you've definitely come to the right place. Single mom who Jeeps? Cool. :) You've got a Rubicon, so you're already off to a fantastic start. The smartest thing to do would be to only investigate upgrades you actually need. In other...

    Umm, you call your buddy who has a trailer. :rofl: Luckily, I only ever had to do that once in my life.

    I still look in awe at what you do with your Excursion. You certainly make it look easy, though I cannot imagine towing a similar load.

    Now that we know what you tow with, Let's see some pictures

    I thought I had posted in this thread earlier this year... I guess not. Short version of the story: 1. Bought 2001 Suburban with Vortec 8100 and 4.10 axle gears in February. It is my first big block ever. 2. Bought shiny new 16' PJ trailer in March. It is my first trailer ever. Three...

    Budget winch

    Warn divides their winches into three general categories: entry level, premium, and ultimate performance. The VR is entry level, while the M8000 is a Premium unit. As far as I could tell in my own research, the primary differences from one level to the next are internal componentry, improved...

    Forest Lake trail

    That's what Kevin thought on Saturday. I have lost count of how many times I* have come along a lone vehicle in trouble on Forest Lake/Mineral Basin/Cascade Springs trails (in other words, very easy trails) and had to rescue them. Don't be that guy--bring a friend in another vehicle. *: when...
