Hi Dennis,
I have a somewhat drastic suggestion for you. Reformat the flash card
inside the BC, and see if the error goes away. If chkdsk finds errors on a
flash card, to be honest, it is not worth messing about with. You may as
well just reformat the card. Of course, this doesn't help if you have any
bookmarks in material you may be reading <Smile>.
All the best

Dear Katie,
Do you have any other suggestions for fixing the error after removing the
USB cable from the BookCourier? I tried the disk fix you outlined without
any change in the error.
