Hi,//////////////////////
XP SP2
USB-stick 1GB regularly used.
Yesterday evening no more detected on whatever usb port tried. Tried this
morning on work PC : same !!
Windows XP doesn't detect it ( nothing in explorer), nor asks to install
new
hardware.
"Add Hardware" doesn't detect new hardware either when incited to detect
Any help ? USB-stick seems to be ok on external examination and contacts
seem to be normal. What can I do since it clearly is teh stick that is
deficient somehow.
TIA all !! This is a 1GB stick. No data on it, but buying a new would be
a
problem now !
TIA again
I suspect it will need replacing. Sometimes you can recover by
reformatting but if it isn't detectable you won't be able to do that. 1-2
GB USB drives are not that expensive retail. Can also pick them up on eBay
fairly cheaply.

Here in Britain, you can find a 1GB usb stick for under 10 pounds.
