Maxtor one touch mini

The programs that self install the first time you connect the OneTouch Mini
III are ***NOT*** Vista compatible. You have to go to the Maxtor web site to
get the Vista Versions.

The first thing I did with my Mini III was to delete all the crap off of the
drive. None of it is necessary, nor needed, to copy files to the drive. I
deleted the partition that was there and created/formatted a new partition.
