hi Jacob yes tried all that. nope no luck.
I've found a low level format program that sometimes helps. I've just tried it once with no luck, but the article does say it might have to be formatted a couple times. so I'll go through that couple more times and see if it helps.
I'm honestly thinking it's dead but thought I'd try it any way. it was a free tool. *smiles*
when I look at the properties of the drive it says 0 bytes with 0 bytes capacity. weird.
when I try to open the drive I get the message saying the device needs to be formatted, but the format never completes. or I'll get the windows message, the drive is right protected. also weird.
ah well...least it didn't have anything on it. I'd have been madder than a hatter if it did.
