Look on the pen drive and see if there are any switches or anything that
would lock it so that data can't be erased.

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Problems formatting pen drive
Hi guys
wonder if anyone could help with a really strange problem I've got with a
pen drive. I've had this pen drive for about 6 months, up until today it
was fine. I went to move a file on to it and windows told me it was right
protected. I hadn't changed anything so don't know why I got that
message. When I looked on the pen itself there were about 64 files but
non of which I'd placed on the drive. the file names were really weird.
I did consider the drive had a virus of some kind so thought I'd format
it. I cant appear to format the drive, windows keeps telling me I don't
have permission and the drive is right protected.
Does anyone know what the problem is and how to solve it? or is this a
dead drive.
I'm using vista so wondered if that was another issue here.
any help would be appreciated.
thanks in advance
Elaine
