My usb shows only 1.96 mb while its orignal space is 4 gb

remember that a memory device needs space in which to operate so a 4gb stick will have less than the 4gb storage It is very possible that there is some memory being used that results in the 1.96 remaining one possible solution is to read the stick and see if there is any files or folders than are required and then reformat it to get back to full memory

You don't any driver of the USB drives on XP. The drivers are built-in with the OS. If the USB stick does not work than that might be another problem. Read my previous entries, http://www.fixya.com/support/t4094662-usb_key_problem and http://www.fixya.com/support/t4202542-when_plug_in_pc_show_pendrive might be helpful.

I can think of several possible reasons it's not getting recognized: 1. It's broken 2. Your OS is so old it doesn't recognize it 3. you need a driver you may be able to get from the driver manufacturer

Why cant i download anything on my phone after formatting my 16g sd

It is possible that your new phone isn't compatible with this old 16GB SD memory card
It is also possible that this 16GB SD memory card simply has died but you can verify this by testing it by trying to access this SD memory card in any computer capable of reading a SD memory card if it not found then this SD memory card simply has died
