Flash Drive not working

cabacm · 01-31-2008, 05:36 PM

I have a 2 G Kingston Flash drive that is about 6 months old.
I was opening a quicktime movie off of it, and go an error message, Exception processing message c0000013 paramater 75b6bf9c 4

Eventually after clicking okay for a while i got rid of it. I went to quicktime and cleared the memory, so i did not get that message again, but my flash drive is now not working. When I plug it into the computer the light flashes, it show us correctly on my computer, and is present and correctly identified in the device manager (no yellow triangle) but when I try and open it it says to insert disc in that drive. It will see the flash but not open it.

I suspect it was something in the quicktime that triggered it, but it maybe not?? Any suggestions? I had backed up most of the files, but was working on some that I had not saved other places - Any ideas on how to recover them?

Thanks for any suggestions you can give.

if theres nothing on it and the computer sees it, try to reformat it. Sometimes if you remove the flashdrive from the computer before files are completely closed, you will get errors.

Tried to format it, but although the light flashes on it, nothing else happens. I tried uninstalling the driver, and plugging it in again so the driver reinstalled - no effect.
Any other suggestions? Please!

do an error check let it fix any errors it finds. rightclick, properties, tools, check now. If that does not work, then there is a good chance the drive is bad.
