I think this maybe a hardware problem. It's almost a year since I bought this 1GB PQI USB Flash drive. When I insert it, it still displays it contents the last time i used it. but I cant use it anymore. It's time to buy a new one. Well it's cheap but i just want to use my old one. If anyone finds solutions to this problem please post it here. thanks a lot.
