Storage capacity too big?

Have a nice Sunday morning,

to my question I have a USB stick from Sandisk (128 GB), I try to use it all the time on my mother's notebook but it does not work he can't open. It is simply shown to me as a USB drive (E.) Also the typical display, how much is already occupied, is not displayed.

I connected the USbstick to my computer and here it functions flawlessly.
On my mother's notebook, a 4 GB Usbstick also works flawlessly.

So the question arises if the notebook does not come with a 128 GB Usbstick.

Since we do not know what the "notebook of your mother" is, you can hardly answer the question. But yes, it is possible that he does not get along with the size.

First, thanks for the answer.
It is a Lenovo Yoga 330

I think that it is a pretty bad device alone is the only one 30gb hard drive is installed.

Did you try all USB ports?

Build a new 500GB SSD.

Yes, he only has 2 ports and on both the 4 GB but not the 128 GB it can only be s.PC, because the 128GB so synonymous s.meine PC is.
That's why I've expressed the suspicion on my part that 128 GB are too much for the notebook

but I can't understand why the USB stick on my 6-year-old Aldi Pc is not on a quasi-new notebook

I need to know which operating systems you use.

For example, if your mother has a Mac and you have a PC, the Mac may not support the format of the USB flash drive.

Oh right, I did not even think about it, so simple just install a new estplatte.

Simply reformat. Update USB driver.

Is really simple YouTube has definitely something, or a workshop.
