2. LED Power and Activity Monitor

When the green LED is lighted, the TravelDrive™ is powered and recognized
by your computer. When the LED is flashing, that means that data are being
transferred to or from your drive. Always wait until the LED stops flashing
before removing the TravelDrive™! Removing the drive while the LED is
flashing risks corrupting the data files and losing access to any other files on
the drive.

3. Lanyard Carrying Strap

To attach your Lanyard to your TravelDrive™, remove the portion with the
small thin nylon strap by depressing each side of the connector. Once you
have removed this connector, slide the small nylon loop thru the cap keyhole
and insert the connector end thru the middle of the nylon loop. Reattach the
connector to the main strap line of the Lanyard.

Troubleshooting:

IX. Troubleshooting:

1. The green Power and Activity LED does not light.

This means the TravelDrive™ is not receiving power from the USB port. Check to
see if the computer recognizes the device as attached and active. In Windows

®

,

double-click the "My Computer" icon to bring up a list of active drives. If your
TravelDrive™ does not appear there, unplug the device and reboot your computer.
Insert the drive again after rebooting. Windows

®

98 SE users may have to reinstall

the drivers. For all other operating systems, repeat steps listed in section VII: Using
Your TravelDrive™.

2. The TravelDrive™ appears to be full, but I can't find any files on it.

The files may have been corrupted if data were interrupted during a transfer,
either by too early a removal or by a power interruption. Restart your computer
and attempt to access your drive. Otherwise, you may need to attempt using some
recovery software to possibly rescue some files on your TravelDrive™. At this time,
Memorex does not have any specific software that it can endorse or support to
perform this operation. If this operation is not required or the files on your drive
are not needed, you will have to reformat your TravelDrive™ to regain its
functionality.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Reformatting permanently erases all the data on the
TravelDrive™, and you will lose any unsaved files. See "XI. Reformatting" below.
