i had a fine working pen drive untill all of a sudden
it stopped responding ....
it is getting recognised ,,,,,but not as a single usb drive but as two
removable disc drives....
i.e when i plug in there are two removable disc drives shown as
removable disc (I: )

removable disc (J: )

and i am not able to open any of them and it says disc not inserted
insert it now...
please help because the usb is of my friends......

I think he suggested to
check whether the USB port is working
and try formatting the USB drive

check drive on another com, format it. best option is to give it back to vendor if under guarantee. recently my san disk pen drive started malfunctioning. it was well within guarantee and i got a brand new piece within 15days
