When i insert my flash USB windows no disk found

[jehad yamin]

Hello, When i insert my FlashUSB the computer detects it
but it shows zero size
and No Disk
When i double click on it
it gives me "Please insert Disk on Drive H"
I tried all tricks in books
change drive and path name
on disk management
nothing works

Try using it on another computer. If the other computer detects it and you do not have anything on it, do a format. Then see if your computer detects it.

SOLVED

if ur problem is
- disk Management it shows it as as Removable Storage(+letter) with no media in it
- properties shows that it has 0 free space and 0 used space
- shows up in my computer but say insert disk

ok i had the same pen drive, same 4 gb and same problem
this is how i solved it

1. plug in the pendrive. restart the pc with a xp installation cd
and make sure u reboot into the xp installation
2. follow the prompts till u get to which drive to install the xp
3.delete the existing partition on the pendrive(it will be listed)
and create a new partition. this re-installs the mbr
4. quit the installation and remove the pendrive before booting normally
5. after booting plug in the drive and format it
– i used HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool but i think windows formatting
should work
– i did a quick format first before a full with ntfs
email me if u have any questions : jojomannoh@yahoo.co.uk
