please my Huys in the house.

i went to my friends house to help him format his laptop, and slot in my flash to back up his files, after which i have finished the backing up the files i forgot to remove the flash in the system and proceed with my formating.

when i get to stage of choosing the drive to format i choosed my flash drive and as well even partioned it.

as i want to proceed it shows me an error message that the drive selected is low to install the oprating system (O.S) that was when i find out that i am using my flash drive.

since that day when ever i plug in my flash drive in any system it will detect it, but if i want to open it, it will show an error that the drive is not formated did i want to format it now i will click yes, the formating dialog box will appear but it could not verify the capacity of the flash drive, i t will shown me unknown capacity in the capacity option.
i will mark quick format to proceed the formating, it will tell me that windows was unable to format the drive.

finally i decided to use ms dos to format it, all at no avail, it will rather show me this message below. i dont know how to use the file system switch to format a drive.


C:\>format f:
Insert new disk for drive F:
and press ENTER when ready,
The type of the file system is RAW.
Please use the /FS switch to specify the file system
you wish to use on this volume.

C:\>

Your are lucky. Your own na flash drive.
My colleage also inserted a 960 GIGABYTE EXTERNAL HARD DISK DRIVE while formating his system.
He used the normal 40 Gig for the OS, but He forgot to remove the External HDD.
i'm sorry to inform u, but that was the end of the external hard disk 960 GIG just go like that,

We did not give up sha, We carry screw driver Scatter the thing open, we extracted the Cirlular disk inside it and put in another hard disk. It worked, so now he is using 960 HDD in his system instead of 40 gig, and no more External
