method one====
========================
First try using windows Disk manager to show partitions and to delete/repartition and reformat the usb drive.
Unfortanutly this may not work and you will need
A) a third partitioning disk utility, or
B) What I use. use windows cmd line diskpart cmd to remove it (what I had to do for a thumbdrive used on a Mac)
.. If diskpart is what you want to use, be cautious and make SURE it is pointing to the USB drive.
Basically (read this first):
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/libr ... 65(v=ws.10" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;).aspx
.. You open a dos command window WITH run with admistrator privlage. then type the following cmds.
- Diskpart Starts program Do Not type the - (ie diskpart> List disk then enter key)
- LIST DISK (shows all disk, look for Disk Number of the Drive (Your USB drive)
- SELECT DISK X (For X insert USB drive Number)
- DETAIL DISK (Detailed information of the disk that has the focus This will show if you have selected the correct drive.)
- CLEAN (One of the most practical and most dangerous: it removes at once all the partitions on the selected disk.)
Note for the next two do NOT use the size=n)
- CREATE PARTITION EXTENDED (Creates an extended partition on the current drive. After the partition has been created, the focus automatically shifts to the new partition.)
- CREATE PARTITION LOGICAL (Creates a logical drive in the extended partition. After the partition has been created, the focus automatically shifts to the new logical drive.)
- EXIT (Quits DISKPART and returns to the command prompt classic)
You should now be able to format the drive (WITH the correct space) using windows
===========================
2nd method---
===========================
there are very few stebs all those are just making it so difficult flow these steps:-
1)go to start
2)type"cmd"
3)type"diskpart"
then write all these comands
list disk
select disk 1(replace 1 with your disk,u can check your disk by checking the size of your disk in "list disk")
clean
create partition primary
format fs=NTFS
exit
Its Done!! :wahoo:

How to fix pen drive not showing data and retrieve files
Follow the two methods below to fix the error and restore data:
Method 1. Unhide files using CMD while pen drive not showing data
1. Connect the USB pen drive or flash drive to PC. Open Windows Explorer > Go to Tools > Folder Options > Go to View Tab > Check "Show Hidden Files". This will make sure that the files and folders are not in hidden mode.
2. Next, click on Start Menu -->Run --> Type cmd and press Enter. To make the pen drive data showing, type the commands: attrib -h -r -s /s /d k:\*.* and press Enter. Here, you need to replace "K" with your pen drive letter.
