Hello,
I just got a brand new flash drive, 32gb it came formatted in fat 32. When trying to format it into ntfs by right clicking on it in my computer it came up with an error "Windows was unable to complete the format" so I attempted it through disk management and after a few hours my laptop powered off, I'm assuming midformat as now the drive cannot be seen in disk management, or diskpart, it doesnt show up as a storage device in the usb controller in device manager, and I can't see it through the bios.
It just seems completely dead?
