Again, please note that it's in 'C' (not C++) and I ...

I am using CreateFile, WriteFile and ReadFile API calls to write some data to a USB device. The code I have works perfectly on 32 bit systems.

The code is basically exactly what you'd think it would be... for (int i = 0; i < f.BlocksOccupied.Length - 1; i++) ...
