Hi,
Thanks all for the suggestions.
I nipped to WH Smiths and bought the HP flash drive mentioned by pinetree, for £9.99, so that I could get the copying done now before PC goes during the week.
I've done it all and it seems fine.
I have now got time to order the SanDisk Cruzer 16 GB(some reviews say it's very slow?) mentioned by Hercule Poirot & gaffy from Amazon, which will give me a spare for the future.
All advice much appreciated.
Cheers
Barbara.
