Is there a capacity limitation on the USB?

I tried the drive on another computer and it works fine.

Thanks for the help/input.

Bob-

Just a guess/possibility, but in the past I have run into problems when a particular device would require a specific format for the drive to be reliably readable:

File Systems and Thumb Drives: Choosing between FAT16, FAT32 and NTFS to get a faster USB Flash Drive

I do not know if BMW requires a specific format, e.g., FAT32 vs, NTSF
