Very frustrating. HydraShok Ars Legatus Legionis Tribus: Minneapolis, MN Registered: Jan 16, 2002Posts: 11406 Posted: Thu Jul 17, 2008 1:48 pm What happens if you run "chkdsk /f /x"? (The /X forces the volume to dismount first.)You probably have a service running off the drive and so scandisk can't get access because Windows itself is denying it. At least that would be my first thought. Admittedly, I haven't needed to use scandisk for quite a while.

I have a 4GB Clevx flash drive CSD 8300 that Windows flat refuses to format. It's really getting annoying. I not only want to know how to get around this but I also want to know why "windows cannot complete format" I've never had this issue on this machine or any other. I have formatted flash drives a hundred times, some of them larger than this one.

That's no help at all. Yes, it formats under Windows 7 on another machine at the computer shop where I work but that doesn't help me at all. I need to be able to format the dang thing on my machine.

I only got a chkdsk style report on the drive. Windows still reports the drive as free space 0. Used space 0. I try to copy files to it but windows says that it cannot find the file or cannot read the source disk. (in this case drive C). The files are there. No question. This is so frustrating I'm about ready to toss this drive in the toilet. If I can't use it on my PC, cannot format it, cannot copy files to it, it's garbage. I tried your command prompt method again but this time I get the DOS message "cannot open volume for direct access" Grrrr! In spite of how it looks, this is XPMCE 2005 SP3 C'mon!
