Default [Pending] Flash Deletion

I've been sent a USB pen drive from Renault with a flash presentation on it. The question is, How do I remove/delete the flash presentation so I can use the full amount of space on the drive?. It shows in My Computer as a CD Drive and a Removable Disc. The contents of the "CD Drive" are "read only" which contains the presentation I want to delete.

You have a USB flash drive and you want to wipe it clean to use it for your own storage?Just right click and format all data on drive will be lost???Is that what you wanted to?

I've tried the suggested fixes from D__'s link but no joy. Is there anything else I could try?

I think the stumbling block is the fact that the Presentation shows itself in My Computer as a USB CD Rom and it seems to be set as read only. If I can alter that then I think there's a better chance of removing it. The question now, is, How?
