bought a new PNY flash drive a few months ago. it was working great when i put it in my computer one day and it reinstalled itself (like when you put it into a computer for the first time) and i couldn't open it. when i go into my computer, the removeable flash icon is there, but when i try to open it, i am asked to insert a flash drive.
the little icon in the task bar is also there, the one you click to safely remove the flash drive, it shows up there.
the computer must recognize that its there, but i cant seem to open it. There is nothing physically wrong with it. it hasnt been run over, stepped on, exposed to water or anything like that.
i dont think that i have anything incredibly important on it, but i would like to try and get it to work again. normally i would return it but i have lost the recipit. i only spent 20 bucks on it and i still have a fully functional flash drive, so i am willing to experiment on the broken one.
any help i can get would be great
thanks
