    Unable to use 16GB USB Flash Drive after formatting

    I have recently lost my 8 GB transcend pen drive and after that I have bought 16GB i-Ball pen drive. Now after buying that it was working fine but once I formatted that pen drive after that I am not able to use my pen drive. When I have inserted my pen drive again after formatting it at that time it is showing me that no disk is inserted. Please tell me what should I do use my pen drive again. Please reply me as soon as possible.

    If your computer is giving me message like no disk is inserted then I think you should first check your i-Ball pen drive with some other laptop or computer and after that check whether you are able use the pen drive or not. If you are able to use your pen drive then I think there might be something wrong with your system and if it is not working with other machine also then think your pen drive is faulty. Try this solution to detect the exact problem.

    If you are not getting this problem with other computer and laptop then I think you have to try to solve this problem by reinstalling the USB drivers and after reinstalling the UBS drivers you will not face this problem again with your pen drive. When you uninstall the USB drivers from your computer after that you have to run the Ccleaner and after that you have to restart the laptop and then install the USB driver again in your laptop. I hope you will get some help from this solution.

    You can solve this issue by using HP USB MEMORY STICK FORMATTER. Just download these tools from internet and after that you have to install it in your computer and then you have to insert the your i-Ball pen drive in your computer and after that try to format the pen drive with the help of HP USB MEMORY STICK FORMATTER. I think with the help of this pen drive you will be able to format the pen drive and make it usable again. If you find any difficulties after that then please let me know.

    I appreciate your help. I have tried my pen drive with different USB port in my computer but same error message was coming from different USB port also. Now after that I have also tried to solve this issue by using HP USB MEMORY STICK FORMATTER but after running that tool also I get the same problem. I have also tried to solve this problem by starting my computer in safe mode and formatting my pen drive from there but it doesn’t make any difference. Now please tell me what I should do to fix this.

    In your computer you have to do right click on my computer and after that you have to click on the manage. Now after that you have to click on the Disk Management and after click on the Disk Management you have to locate your USB drive and after that you have to try make partition in your USB drive. I hope it might be helpful you. If you need any more information then let me know.
