Greetings! I recently ( and I mean RECENTLY ) got a brand-swankin' new 8-gig drive! To date, I've used it once. Only once.
Then, it starts going nuts when I decide to finally switch over to it from my old flash. I plug it into my computer, I start copying stuff over, then BAM! Suddenly, the copying stops because it can't find the destination folder. I find this strange, so I take a gander. The entire drive is empty! No anything! I decide to blame this on the U3 technology, and uninstall it, because I only have a few minutes after insertion before the flash dies.
So, after having removed the U3 stuff, the start-up thing vanishes. Now, I have a 16 meg flash that refuses to be formatted. Please help :(
As long as it shows in Disk Management in Windows, it is most likely saveable. Borrow a flash drive from a friend, GHOST it to your hard drive and then to your flash drive (Drive to Drive may be unsafe because you can mix up which is which). It should work and then you can reformat it so as not to steal your buddies stuff.
