Imitation USB Removable storage disk 2gig

Check that the safety switch is not on the USB. Some of them have a simple on off switch that gets turned off. I have made that mistake myself even knowing they are there. If there is not one of these switches I would try the device in another computer and see if it comes up the same way again.

You can format your memory through Disk Management.

You can access it through:
1. Right Click on My Computer
2. Click Manage
3. Under Storage Click Disk Management from the Left Panel.
4. Right Click the drive of your removable storage then click Format.

When the flash memory USB hard drive device appears to malfunction it maybe possible to restore it by reformatting it.
Try formatting using Disk manager.
Insert the flash or USB hard drive into the USB port then Click on Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Computer Management - Disk Management.
Then right click on Disk 1 removable drive and click Format. After the flash drive has been formatted it will indicate that it is Healthy.

Sometimes when a flash memory stick fails because it was not removed from the USB port properly. If the device is removed by just pulling it out of the USB port, it can cause the flash device to fail, you must click on the Safely Remove Hardware icon on the Task Bar and select the device you wish to remove and only do so when instructed to do so.

You need to format the external drive. Format the drive as primary drive and in FAT32. (FAT32 will allow data to be exchanged between MACs and PCs).
Insert the external hard drive into the USB port then Click on Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Computer Management - Disk Management.
Then right click on Disk 1 removable drive and click Format. After the flash drive has been formatted it will indicate that it is Health

This sounds like a problem with the card in the camera, not the motherboard. Defective cards or unformatted drives behave this way. You might want to try Picasa for uploading, or insert the card in a card reader and see if you can access it that way. See your camera manual for instructions about formatting the card.
