64gb suddenly in RAW help

[McStorm]

Hi.

I have just purchased a 64gb flash drive, when i first installed the drive i could only use eFAT and FAT32, i deleted the partition tried NTFS, without success, now my drive has suddenly has RAW read only, so im unable to write a new partition to the drive.

Any ideas what i could try to get the drive to write again.

The drive will show a RAW if that partition is corrupt. This can occur if the USB pen was removed whilst writing data to the drive at the time it was removed.

If you don't require the data, here is what you need to do:
- Go to My Computer, Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Computer Management.
- Go to Storage > Disk Managment group on the left, and then right click on your USB drive on the right.
- From here, you should be able to remove the RAW patition and then create a new one as FAT.
