hi just want to share my experience about this..i have my flash drive 1gb that I THINK that is broken coz my computer said THE USB CANNOT BE RECOGNIZED..i didnt used it in about 2 years (i bought it when i was in collage,im an IT) then i read about this post and try to fix my flash drive
again to solved the mystery of this problem thing..you know what i found out?..the computer cant recognize the flash drive because of POWER that supply into it..yup thats the problem..and after i 100% recover my flash rive and working again i just found out that it has a lot of virus namely: win32/mabazet.A virus , win32/alban.NAB virus ,win32/SALITY.NAR virus , VBS/AUTORUN.CM WORM and more .. as you can see it the virus controll the win32 of the computers system thats why it didnt recognize it and i THINK it holds back the power supply that he needed..
so how did i do it?..
SIMPLE steps..i go to disk manager then at universal bus controller i unistall all my usb root hub 1 by 1 also with the standard universal PCI to USB Host Controller,then at the ACTION tab above it i SCAN Hardware change (note* your usb or flash drive must be inserted to the port so the computer can scan for your drive) then viola,problem solved!! then i opened my 2yrs old granny flash drive with nod32 then all of the items inside found many viruses..dang!!!
my conclusion is this 1.)Power of the usb port may be to high for the flash drive thats why you need to uninstall all drive then scan for it 2.)the power of the viruses
i hope this really help guys..email me or bump this thread if you need for more information about what i did..im cloning my hardisk right now and i just try to solve my flash drive problem for past time coz i read this thread..
I HOPE THIS HELP (im using Transcend JF v33 1gb my OS is windows xp sp2)
