Try different USB ports. Try a different PC if you have access to one. Check Device Manager and see if there are any issues with USB devices in there. Check Disk Management and see if the drive is showing up without a drive letter.

If it doesn't work on a different PC then the only other thing I can thing of is to try a data recovery application and see if it can see the data.

Something like Recuva or TestDisk.

There are other programs out there but I imagine they'll have the same results.
Unfortunately the device may just be dead.

Re: Pc wont recognize usb

It's hard to say what causes it. Could be electrostatic shock or removing the drive without using the Safely Remove Hardware or just a hardware failure of the USB drive.
