Question Ooops! USB drive stopped working

When I put a fresh install of XP on my desktop, I was going through which drive to put it on, etc.

Thinking that a 63 MB drive that showed up was a partition, I had it deleted. Then I realized that it was my Micro Advantage 64 MB USB 2.0 drive!

The thang won't recognize on any of my machines, USB 1.1 or 2.0, and it asks if I'd like to format it (in Windows). I try to format, and it just comes back with an error that it can't. Windows is such a tease

Is the hardware in the USB drive fried or something since it was reformatted during the Windows setup? I'm not sure what to do, and with all my devices failing/being lost, I need to fix what I can Ideas?

Send a message via AIM to ribitch
right click my computer and select manage. Use the disk management MMC to recreate the partition of the drive
