Memory Stick Failure

[Jerome Pittsburgh]

I had a perfectly good Lexar 128 MB memory stick. It now will not be recognized by any computer. I have tried it on systems running both Win 2000 and Win XP. The little green light on the stick no longer lights up when placed in the USB port and the stick seems dead.
Any sugesstions?

Thanks,
J from P

Sorry, sounds dead to me ... give it a decant burial.

I agree ! Other than checking the physical plug for signs of damage, sounds like it may be a dead un. It happens!

Thanks. I was afraid of this and hoping for some miracle cure.

Did it have anything important on?

See if they will recover it for you if so...

its not really something you can repair though - a microchip

dude.. it's just a 128 mb.
you can buy 512 mb for just 50$ or alot less if you look on the right places
or if you have the cash go for 1 gb
or just buy a 16 gb ram super-computer from
