I'm going to add that when you right click it in my computer and go over a few tabs, it says that it is partitioned as MBR, which is the master boor record, so 'm thinking if I can find a program that allows you to install an OS onto a USB device(I heard of a linux one), than maybe I could partition it with that. I just think Windows has no clue how to deal with a MBR partition.

Thats odd, my sandisk says it's FAT format, not MBR. can you at all right click on the drive and click format, then format the usb divice to a whatever format you want?

EDIT: you did try the device on other computers, right? cause it could just be your comp. if it's xp or higher maybe you didn't disengage it properly and/or set it in the wrong usb port than it's used to/installed for. maybe you should go call your manufacturer and see if they can help you better than we can.
