muppet rebecca Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 Okies just to let you know you've posted your thread in the wrong section of the forum. It needs to be in the hardware section. Also when you post it in the correct section write down as much detail as you possibly can about your problem. It helps people to help you. Quote
Jelly Bean Posted January 9, 2010 Posted January 9, 2010 Bennet hello there. Your title says 4 gb flash drive? Your question mentions memory? Do you mean the USB pen drive is not showing in computer? Quote Rwy'n ceisio fy ngorau......................
bennett Posted January 9, 2010 Author Posted January 9, 2010 Alright J.B. it seems to be the same problem that jinkie had, in the properties it only shows about 1mb if that, i had hoped it was a plug and go but it seems to need a bit of fiddling with it. not my cup of tea when a bit complicated. it shows as k drive.

Jelly Bean Posted January 10, 2010 Posted January 10, 2010 What does it show in disk management? Are you able to resize the partition there? Quote Rwy'n ceisio fy ngorau......................
Plastic Nev Posted January 10, 2010 Posted January 10, 2010 I have to ask the question, has it ever shown the full 4GB? if not, and new to you, where did you buy it? If not of reputable make or source it could be a duffer, there are a lot of re printed or re labelled drives knocking about that are pirated. The pirate gets a cheap 1GB drive, then re labels it as 4GB, and can therefore sell it at a higher price and then run. Nev. Quote Need help with your computer problems?

bennett Posted January 11, 2010 Author Posted January 11, 2010 Thanks for your help, i have now returned it and got a sandisk. It worked right away, showed exactly what mem was on there. The chap at tesco said there was quite a few of them round the back. Once again thanks for your time, m.b. Quote
