Dear,
No, problem
Just copy the whole data of pen drive to PC. Now format the pen drive
and paste the data from PC to pen drive again. It will work fine then

Thanks,

You probably dropped the pen - there is a very fragile ferrite core in the tip and when it breaks it behaves just as you describe.  I have posted a description of the repair procedure (adapted from a description for other pens that I had found on the web) on my blog: http://wishidknownthat.blogspot.com/2009/04/fixing-wacom-bamboo-pen.html

It takes a bit of patience and skill but you can do it.
I am pretty sure that this kind of "surgery" would void any warranty - on the other hand, if this is indeed your problem they will say you abused the pen (by dropping it) and charge you for the new one anyway.

One or more of the hints below will probably sort out most USB problems with most USB portable / external hard drives and OTHER devices (though not always)

A few things to check but assumes USB and Windows for other interfaces / operating systems (mac/ Linux) similar steps may be adapted to suit.

1. Ensure it is connected directly to the computer to a USB 2.0 port not a USB 1.0 port as this can have effects on performance and reliability

2. Use only the cables that came with it NOT one that fits that may have been lying around or is longer. Not all USB cables are equal even though they should be)

3. Do not connect through an external USB HUB unless that hub is USB 2.0 AND has its own power supply.

4. Use ONLY the power supply that came with it if it has an external power supply Don’t use any other unless you know it has both the same voltage and current rating e.g. 12V 500mA anything rated below that would not work properly.

5. Always use the same port for connecting your devices. Some devices do not like being switched about. If switched they may want to install software / drivers again. This can be especially true if you move a HUB to another port

6. For FLASH DRIVES you should ensure that the device is set for "quick removal" using the drive control panel properties or use the USB "Safely Remove Hardware" option. If you dont do this there is a very strong chance that any files you transfer may not be there when you plug into another computer.


7. It is possible to remove drives from the enclosures in most cases and connect directly inside a PC to fully check it.
You should also do this to cheack the drives connections are not bad inside the enclosure.

8. If none of the above steps help look at updating the drivers from the manufacturers web site in the support section.

9. If you checked and fixed anything there and still have issues then check your hardware from CONTROL PANEL / SYSTEM / HARDWARE.

Any exclamation marks by hardware need fixing before you investigate any further
SPECIAL NOTES
USB flash drives can fail for no apparent reason.
Sandisk Cruzers are especially bad for this.
For some unknown reason some flash drives seem to forget they are formatted and holding data. Re-formatting is a quick fix but does mean you loose information.

USB hard drives should be treated with extreme care.
This is a real hard drive ! and knocks and bumps can quite literally kill them.

Note that if you hear a drive clicking or pinging this could be the worst thing you would hear.

1. Download this tool:

2. Format

(Before removing USB flash drive click on the Safely Remove Hardware icon and then click on USB flash drive you want to remove)

SOURCE: i had this resident evil 5 pc game,everything went

"Find
C:\Users\"Username"\Documents\CAPCOM\RESIDENT EVIL 5\config.ini (for Vista / 7)
or
ñ:\My Documents\CAPCOM\RESIDENT EVIL 5\config.ini (for XP)
and change Stereo=OFF to Stereo=ON.
This will add laser, but default crosshair will still be there, like it or not"

Found this on another forum, if anyone wants to change it.
