If I have mentioned it before apologies but any chance of trying this drive on another machine as we are fast running out of options D.

Just plugged the drive on a Samsung notebook. Again, no partitions are displayed.
I think it's time that I should just give up and trash the thumb drive, unless you guys have another option...
In post #9, you did say "Only "Change drive letter" is clickable". Rest is greyed out, because no partitions are displayed."
In the reference I had given, the user clicked on Change Drive Letter and removed the drive letter. Did you do that and then check whether you can create and format the partition as he had done?
I presume that it is still shown in Disk Management but now without a drive letter. What options do you get when right clicking after you have removed the drive letter?
Thank you all for your support.. Have any last resort options? Something that can write an MBR? Because the absence of an MBR would explain why the drive is not listed by any app...
No D looks like we have exhausted all options ate might just have to put it down to experience mate
I do not want to pour cold water into your desire to write the MBR.:) Please do and report.
Bootice can write MBR - provided it can recognise your pendrive. BOOTICE v1.02 2012.12.12
BOOTICE - Modify, Backup, Restore Master Boot Record & Partition Boot Record
Click on Process MBR, Select Windows NT 5.x / 6.x MBR, click on Install/config and then in the ensuing screen giving you the choice click on Windows NT 5.x MBR.
