2g USB pen drive "not recognised"

My 2g flash drive has been munged!

- Windows does see a usb-device but gives a "Code 10" .. not recognised
- Linux lsusb and udev report the stick, but does not give it a /dev/sda node.

The blue LED blinks normally, I am stumped.

here the gory details:

I'd be stoked if anyone helps rescue the day ...

Hi first of all send me an email to fcm4400404@techie.com.

Second : Would you like to repair it , or would you like to RIG IT and make it work for a minute to get your data back ?

Thankz :)

That would be marvellous, but I can't get at it until April... I'll set myself a alarm and email you then. MERCI

if its windows vista try it in another one

code 10 is a windows error code
