Flash drive not working
I bought a 3 gig flash drive a few weeks ago and now it's not working. Don't really know anything about flash drives, that's why I got it. I've plugged it into several machines and it say's "Unable to read" and "unable to format". Anyone know what I'm doing wrong here? Thanks.

If it's that new can't you take it back under warranty?
Do you have any important files on it?

Chances are it's a lemon. Your warranty should cover it, and you may still have a store warranty if you bought it at retail.

You stated in your post, "now it's not working." Would that imply that it did work at first?
