    Usb broken after Formatting


    Hello, I Formatted my USB into exFAT, because it was on 32GB it was USB used for a clean installation of windows so I switched it back to 1TB, It was working great but when I wanted to give some files into it It disconnected from my PC, I connected it back and it wrote ''Please insert the disc into USB drive'', When I looked in Disc Manager, Its blank, It has nothing there just the name, When I try to formate it says ''No media Found''. I reinstalled drives, restarted pc, reinstalled USB connector drives, nothing helped. So the USBis dead? I also tried removing its number and adding it

    :)

    How To Format A Write Protected Flash Memory ?

    ¿You already tried this one?...

    Run CMD


    1. diskpart
    2. list disk

    Then in the 3º step, put the correct number of disk in the list for the usb flash (if it's listed in disk 3, then you'll have to write select disk 3).

    2. select disk #
    3. clean
    4. create partition primary
    5. select partition 1
    6. active
    7. format fs=fat32
    8. assign
    9. exit

    with that commands you will format the flash drive in fat32, if you have a large drive you can select also "format fs=ntfs" in step 7.

    good luck!

    USB Flash Drive saying not formatted..?

    Hi,

    I have a Memorex Poker Chip USB Flash Drive 1GB, and It shows up fine on one PC as "Poker Chip" in explore, and I can transfer files... but on my other PC (the one I'm on now..specs in profile) it's listed only as H: Removable Disk, and when I click on it, it says: "The Device is not formatted, would you like to format it now? (Y/N). Why would it be recognized on one PC, but the not the other? How come the other PC didn't need it formatted? When I click yes to format it, it says: "Windows was unable to complete the format"

    I went to the BIOS and USB 2.0 is enabled. And Device Manager does list it as a Memorex Poker Chip..
