It wasn't, so I was puzzled as to where the problem was. CHKDSK gave it a clean bill of health, so it wasn't file system corruption either.
Turned out it was a LFN -> 8.3 filename mapping collision.
Converting the stick to NTFS fixed it.

I personally really hate calibre. Too many files or too large a file and he program takes hours to load up or do anything. I have tried to fiddle with it and it just doesn't like to run with my library of books despite the formats being supported.
