Okay, I have a Geek Squad 4GB Flash Drive device. I got it for like 20 or 30 dollars... I don't really remember. Getting a new one is not a big loss, it's the value of my information on it that's important.
When I first got it, it was very simple, I plugged it into one of my laptop's ports and it would say something like 'installing software', which it does this with anything and everything I plug into a port... then it'd come up and say something about an error and if I wanted to scan and fix or continue, so I always did continue (cause, again, for some reason, it always thinks there is a problem). Then it would show me a option table thing where I could choose how I wanted to open it. Usually I click that out and just go into documents and open it from there.
I now how to do the computer thing, where you look at it.
So here's the deal: As of this morning June 23, I put it in and it didn't pop up like it usually does. So I went to the computer thing, and when I looked at it shows it as a 'Removable Disk'. I clicked it and it asks me if I wanted to format the disk. OF COURSE NOT!!! I have over 150 documents on it!!!
Please! Someone help! That stuff isn't retrievable!
I've already tried a site where you can retrieve deleted information, just incase somehow it got deleted. Nothing showed up. I didn't delete anything. I accidently passed out, and left the device in my laptop, but I've done this before and nothing has ever happened.
I have a Windows Vista or whatever. (I'm eventually switching to Mac, I do not enjoy Windows or it's programs and flaws.) I have tried to plug it into my home computer, which is also a windows, and my father's laptop which is a Window's and the brand is an ACER.
Please, someone help!!!
I'll be crushed if I lose all that hard work!!
I don't know... Window's XP or Vista or whatever, I just know it's a Window's and it was bought two years ago. And it's only crashed once, due to a falty motherboard.
