Hi. I was wondering if anyone could maybe help me with an 8 gb usb memory stick i have recently purchased off ebay. it was brand new and worked fine for around 3 weeks. Got it from china so cant be bothered with posting back for refund. now it wont format in windows xp pro service pack 2 and i was wondering if i should throw it away? or could the bad sectors be moved to the end and could it still be used? i have a program called paragon partition manager 9 but dont really know how to use it and cant see an option to format it which is what i need to do first to get laptop to recognise it. any help would be great thanks. cheers steve

hi
on the lexar 2 GB memory usb stick i transfered all my pictures onto the stick and deleted them frommy C drive on my computer. But i found that when i tried to open the USB stick thinking that all of my pictures were on there, i found that it my pictures were not there. So i then had to restore all the pictures frrom my recycle bin back onto my computer for the pictures to show up on my usb stick. I also found that when i used the stick on another computer my pictures don't come up but the pictures that are on the other computer comes up. Is there a way of getting the memory stick to retain the data that i have transfered so that i can use it on another computer?
