it is FAT32....

dunno what this is for.......

plus if I format this.....will it be ok?  or is the U3 the culprit?

hmm....my main concern is how come the files get corrupted......

and the Mac is G4

Did u open the file in Mac and then in Windows? What type of file and with which software program u/yr gf open it with?

U3 is a bundle of programs to value add the thumb drive, a collection of program that onli needs the USB stick (and Windows) to run. If u dun wan it, its ok.

Better to format it in Windows to FAT and use it in Mac.

Mac uses a different text file formating and the file naming is different.

Hope this helps a bit
