USB flash drive SanDisc with files on it asking for format?
Dear SevenForums Community,
I have a problem with my USB flash drive. It's a SanDisc 16GB flash drive with some of my files I use for School and Home. Luckily it is saved as a backup so this isn't the problem. I am looking for assistance regarding the problem(s) below.
Upon plugging the USB flash drive into my computer, I am welcomed by this message:
I clicked the format option, and I look at the Capasity in the Format window.. it saying 1GB capacity. There is no other choice.
I tried to check the drive using the chkdsk utility without any good results.
Here is a screenshot of Disk Management:
So I am wondering what is the problem and how it can be fixed? I don't really want to trow away this USB flash drive, as I am using it daily for moving my data between home and school.
Thanks for any assistance.
