Unable format - SanDisk Cruzer Micro 8GB USB 2.0 Flash Drive

TRY TO QUICK FORMAT IT.

You will probably need to remove the drive and use another computer to format it. You can buy an adapter to connect it to another pc as a USB drive and format it this way. They are not very expensive. Hope this helps.

Have you tried booting from a Windows XP CD? If you have one available you can boot from it, delete the partition and format it. Works all the time for me.

Go to my computer scroll to sansa or your MP3 player and open the music folder and open each sub folder and delete Songs manually then delete the folders them selfs then format a couple of times hope this works

Far too often these little things have an almost invisible read/write protect button on them. Look carefully, over the entire surface of the USB Flash Drive. You might have this switch turned to Write Protect, which means there is nothing you can do, until you turn it the other way, and allow the device to be written to.

Cheers!

Try this trick; if there is an option for quick format. Format it first on quick format option. Then format it using full format.
