Flash Drive FUBAR
August 2, 2006 6:29 AM
My Flash drive has gone screwy. I think its partitions are gone.
Lst night I was working with some documents on my Arcdisk 4GB flash drive. I was opening some documents and went to another program and my machine froze. I am due for an XP reinstall as this freeze is becoming common and I had just been working with other documents on the drive. I say this to stress I don't think the drive caused the freeze.
Now when I put the drive in my PC nothing happens. Not in disk admin, not in my computer. The light on it does come on initially and go off. I tried my ibook and Disk Utility sees it but freezes during the Erase.
Suggestions to get it operational? I have already worked through the fact the data is gone.
