Despite being used before, the flash drive had to have it's driver installed last time I plugged it in which resulted in it appearing as Innostor NAND. I can no longer access the files on it and have had no luck with changing the drivers back to Lexar due to the S73 driver not being present on the Lexar site or anywhere else I have looked. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
USB flash devices don't need drivers. I believe you might have removed one or both of these drives from the PC without using the proper procedure, and the PC (or notebook) is now "confused". Re-attach one or both devices, but this time, either use (Windows) Explorer to "electronicaly" eject the device (right click, then choose eject) or use "Safely Remove Device" shortcut, usually on the bottom right=hand corner of your screen (the taskbar).

First, download and try to extract all the files from your drive with this tool:

Second, at the moment that you are sure that you have all your files backed up, if windows recognizes the drive, try to right click on it and format

It's possible that you are still suffering from the effects of the virus. You can try to download a (free) program called "Restoration" and run it. Here's the link:

If you manage to recover your files, I would recommend that you re-format the flashdrive to make sure that you are getting rid of the virus, then re-install your flashdrive software if you use it.
