Chances are then that it's a goner.
For example, don't let them lie around in front of speakers etc. - not
saying you did - but sometimes these things just fail anyway.

Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] Problems formatting pen drive
hi Jacob
yes tried all that. nope no luck.
I've found a low level format program that sometimes helps. I've just
tried it once with no luck, but the article does say it might have to be
formatted a couple times. so I'll go through that couple more times and
see if it helps.
I'm honestly thinking it's dead but thought I'd try it any way. it was a
free tool. *smiles*
when I look at the properties of the drive it says 0 bytes with 0 bytes
capacity. weird.
when I try to open the drive I get the message saying the device needs to
be formatted, but the format never completes. or I'll get the windows
message, the drive is right protected. also weird.
ah well...least it didn't have anything on it. I'd have been madder than a
hatter if it did.
