I have done some tests on a variety of usb sticks using xp pro 64 bit, vista
Ultimate 32 bit and vista Premium 64 bit.
I have E6600 processor with 4G memory.
Gigabyte N680SLI-DQ6 motherboard.
All tests were completed on the same PC / hardware
I have formatted a variety of devices from 8G to 0.5G and they are all
significantly faster running under XP pro.
Under XP pro the 8G stick takes just 20 seconds... under either vista the
time taken was just under 10 minutes!!
Ihave tried, changing the policy statements for the sticks ( no difference),
removed all other usb devices (no difference), plugging them into different
ports (no difference)
The drivers being used all say Microsoft on all systems. With my limited
knowledge it very much looks like a Microsoft problem.
However could it be a motherboard / driver problem?
