Default USB Pen Drive Not Reading

Hi all.

I have the Sandisk Cruzer Crossfire 1GB Pen Drive (USB).

I just plugged it into a computer and the light lit up and then dimmed, and the computer did not recognize it or read it. I have tried a few different computers and the same happens. Anyone had experience with this kind of error?

This is a picture of my Pen drive:



Thanks for any help,

upgrader

Have you opened it up and played around with the chip?
I had the same one It broke open and I tried fixing it to bring it back to normal but I made it worse.

Opening it up doesn't sound like a very good idea then...

I think im gonna see if Disk Management picks it up at home later, or if my home PC picks it up; it was reading it this morning.

Did you have the same problem?

I mean in the past have you opened it because if you have then that is your problem, and has it worked in the past?
