Most of them work just fine, but a couple of them won't let me format them because they are "write-protected." There is no write protection switch on the device. I have exhaustively tried the following: Windows format: "The disk is write protected" HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool: "Device media is write-protected" Changing registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StorageDevicePolicies to 0 diskpart clear attributes readonly diskpart clean: "Diskpart has encountered an error: The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error. See the System Event Log for more information." (The System Event Log only contains the error: The IO operation at logical block address 0 for Disk 1 was retried.) HDD Low Level Format Tool: "Format Error occurred at offset 985,595,904: 1117 - Device I/O error" and hundreds of similar errors Sacrificing a lamb to the USB gods Starting in safe mode with command prompt and running format, diskpart, and chkdsk So do all these I/O device errors mean that these USB drives

When starting the laptop it says "missing operating system". I put http://superuser.com/questions/689439/how-to-format-repair-a-write-protected-usb-drive-with-i-o-errors it into an external USB box, connected to another pc, windows shows the device among the USB devices, but it does not show it under my computer or disk management. I tried already at least 30 different recovery utilities, none of them could find any partition or any file on it, altough they are able to show the disk configuration (number of sectors, size, etc.). Some of them gave the I/O error (1117). I tried also to mount the disk http://www.techspot.com/community/topics/i-o-error-1117.113915/ under Linux, no success. Latest temptative was to start the laptop with a DOS cd to run the DOS version of unerase, but it failed too. It simply says that the space under the disk is "unallocated" and that it can read any partition or file. What else can I try before taking it to those very expensive recovery companies? The file system should be NTFS, there was WIN XP Home installed. Regards, D.

Yes for some reasons (virus? hw failure?) the disk is not accessible, there is a user password preventing read/write functions. Well, at least this is what I think. Now the problem is... who set this password? I was using the pc, it suddenldy crashed and after the first reboot the disk became unusable. Is there a way so that I can get rid of that password? I am quiet concerned... Regards, D. Oct 14, 2008 #3 kimsland Ex-TechSpotter Posts: 14,524 I'm pretty sure that you need some type of system
