Friends i am having a small probs with my pen drive cum mp3 player.
Its 256 mb of cost Rs.2300 .
One day i used it to copy some power point presentation. after that i is not detected on any comp. it switches over from general mode to file modes. it shows all attributes it has it's FM is working fine . there is not any songs stored in that that why i cant say whether its player is working or not. I use male to male data transfer cable. Any way i am not able to connect it to comp to transfer music file . Tell me what had happened to it .
I need help . if anybody having same experience take pain to write me solution.

Not too sure about what exactly is wrong but suggesting anyways, wait for some better info though...............can you format it or some thing. Some of the cheaper mp3 players based on flash drives should not be used for data storage (or so i have been led to believe, i might be wrong)
