I've got a 32GB memory stick that was working until I plugged it into a Skybox and now I keep getting
messages that it needs to be formatted.
Every time I plug it into my PC or laptop I get a message;
'Windows was unable to complete the format' so does that mean am I snookered?

i may be wrong, but is sky recorded stuff copyrighted? ie they encrypt stuff you record so you cant transfer or watch it on a pc? i dont have sky, but i seem to think i read that somewhere.

yeah but i have one that always says it needs formatting, when i know for a fact it doesnt. ive googled and it happens to a lot of people. theres obviously some kind of bug somewhere with windows. if i leave it for a about 20 seconds it works, then i have to click cancel on about 10 "do you want to format this drive?" messages

there must be a way round it, but i havent figured it out yet. all i know for certain, is it doesnt need formatting. theres nothing wrong with the drive at all.

well mine works after i wait a bit. then click cancel about 10 times.
but obviously if youve actually clicked on format then its gonna have tried to format it, ie wipe the lot off. |

I think we're both gonna have to wait for a techno-geek to come along with a few options for us but he probably won't now after calling him that
