My 2 GB Kingstone USB pen drive is suddenly not being recognized on any computer or device. It was working perfectly fine, but all of a sudden it seems to be bricked. It receives power (it gets warm), but the indicator light doesn’t light up. What is the solutions?
Do you get the sound Windows makes when you insert it?
No, not at all.
So it is not recognized in any of your machines, right? Can you post a screenshot of Disk Management while it's inserted in a USB port. Before making the screenshot maximize the window and adjust the panes/columns to maximize info.
ok Sure.
Please check the attachment file.
Not good...
While the drive is inserted can restart the machine and rather than letting it boot into Windows, go into the BIOS and see if you can find the BIOS page that deals with USB devices to see if it's recognized there.
Sir, Actually other pen drives are easily detected on my PC. But that pen drive is suddenly not being recognized on any computer or device.
Yes, I was assuming that you had already determined it was that USB only and that others likely worked.
But what I want to know is if the machine itself can see it, even though Windows cannot. That's why I was asking for you to check to see if the machine's BIOS recognizes it. Do you know how to get into the BIOS?
Ok let me try.
