Default Problem with USB storage device - 10-22-2006 , 06:24 PM






Now I'm in front of you with a problem for a solution. I brought a pen
drive : Sony Micro Vault 1 GB. After I started using, it showed
capacity 0.98 GB in a single drive. Once I copied some files, some of
the files couldn't be opened and showed some symbols. So I format the
whole disk and it was OK. Then I installed a software given with it to
be used for protection and use of Password. named log.exe. Then a
window came where option for setting password and determining the size
of disk to be kept under protection was shown. The max size was around
62 MB. I thought rest of the memory will be open for use and run that
program setting a password. Afterwards I found it made two drives, one
very small 450 kb and another also very small where the option for
password is given. Once password is given the drive opened and showed
the capacity 58 MB. No other drives or storage are shown once connected
with USB port. Now where is rest of the memory ( 900 + MB ) How can I
recover those? I tried to deinstall the programme from that drv but
there is no such option.

Now you can only help me out in this crisis. Waiting for your reply...

Stay fine and take care.

It is very likely that you have bought a counterfeit drive. You can
learn a lot about the problem by reading
