I recently picked up a U3 compliant USD flash drive. U3 defines a small partition on the flash drive to mimic a CD drive and launch the U3 tool. I found this would not work unless I went into AnyDVD and removed the pseudo CD drive from the list of devices. Anybody else had this experience? Thanks.
I have had several customers come to me with SanDisk USB drives with the U3 software. It cause more problems than it is worth. Kind of like all the trash software that comes pre-installed with a boxed PC.
