Drive is going bad and picture files are more sensitive to data corruption? I'm not sure.

the drive is either going bad, maybe a format (not a quick one) will help. It could also be your computer that your using to write and read as well. The same happened at my school computers except i was making a very important web design project, turned out it was the computer that was messing up all my files on my thumb drive

Have you replicated the problem on all of the USB ports on your computer? If so, then it's (likely) the drive you got. Otherwise, it could be a port issue, or it could just be dust in the port causing a bad connection, or some such....

its not the computer cause I grab some pics from other computers I have and all did the same... if its the drive as many you mentioned.. is there a fix? or do i have to send it to the manufacture?

Try to format it and see.
If its really old and heavily used, then the drive might have reached its read/write limit.
