    Something here in the following link to try:

    ALSO, ARE YOU DISCONNECTING/REMOVING YOUR DEVICE CORRECTLY...
    Disconnecting a device

    Most USB devices can be removed and unplugged. When unplugging storage devices, such as USB flash drives, make sure that the computer has finished saving any information to the device before removing it. If the device has an activity light, wait for a few seconds after the light has finished flashing before unplugging it.

    If you see the Safely Remove Hardware icon in the notification area on the right side of the taskbar, you can use this as an indication that devices have finished all operations in progress and are ready to be removed. Click the icon and you'll see a list of devices. Click the device that you want to remove. Windows will display a notification telling you it's safe to remove the device.


    Note

    You can also safely remove devices from the Computer folder. Click the Start button , click Computer, right-click the device you want to remove, and then click Eject.

    Try...


    Hi babuahmed

    I had similar problem myself, back in Uni.
    What I did: I have inserted my pendrive into USB slot, and held it with my hands so that OS sees it, my mate then made copy of docs from pen to desktop.
    I believe your dirve is damaged, try this trick... Good luck...

    If you're getting the Autoplay menu, see if the stick shows up in Computer.

    If so rightclick on it to open Properties>Tools and run Disk Check with both repair option boxes checked
    to see if it will repair it.

    If chkdsk /R does not run to completion or help you, the only thing I can think of is something like Recuva or GetDataBack. I don't know if those 2 applications work on USB drives.

    Otherwise, you may need a professional data recovery service and that would cost hundreds of dollars.

    The drive and data is done for at this point unless you do what ignatzatsonic said (post #17) in his last sentence.
