    So what I'm wondering about is, if there are any Qt Libs for fat32 io direct drive access. My issue is I want to be able to read and write directly from and to a USB pen that uses a fat32 (or something really close to it anyway). Does anything like this currently exist? or am I on my own here?

    Thanks.

      "QFile":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qfile.html should work with FAT32 as well.. or is it failing ?

        Just use QFile as Rahul said. The operating system abstracts this for you as long as it knows how to handle FAT32 filesystems.

          Well the issue here is I need a lib that provides low level driect drive access as its not a fat32 it's a fatx usb drive i'm accessing.

            There is nothing in Qt that directly supports this. However, that is not to say that you couldn't write one. A better approach might be to find some utility for Windows or a kernel driver for Linux that already provides what you need though.
