Recent last few days, i accidentally hit my USB that was just plugged on the Computer. It was on and the red light was on the USB. I knocked it off the computer and when i went to put it back in, the light wouldn't come on, and i couldn't find it in 'My Computer' like it wasn't working or connected.

Can anyone find a solution on how to fix my USB and thoughts on what might have happened to it? i need desperate help because sadly, the USB is what i use for my CS2D; that includes all Scripts, maps, and gfx's i've been working on.
It would bring me to sudden sadness if all of my years work were to be lost.

Might have corrupted it, this is why you should back up the files on your computer. And then later on you can purchase a new USB if need be.

Broken. Simple answer.
It is possible, that the memory is still readable, but you broke the USB as a whole thing. So if you are not into stuff like removing parts from inside the USB and replacing them (which would probably get you to the same result: nothing), your stuff is lost. Stop hitting hardware bro.

Yeah flash drives are pretty weak.

ouch. i don't like the sound of this at all ... THE TRUTH HURTS !!! OOWWWW. *Falls on floor*


Thanks guys. lol, and i actually hit the USB by accident, well you see, i did a 180 spin on my epic Computer chair and then my leg hit it LOL! kinda dumb right?

lol that happend to me once.. but i didnt hit it or anything.. just died after 2 days of me havnig it.. but suck lol.. always have back ups

It never knew what was coming it saw you staring at it in the store.. and it began to smile, thinkg "IM GONNA GO TO A GREAT HOME AND MY MASTER PROUD!! :D" R.I.P USB... R.I.P....

I accidentally put my flash drive into the washing machine.

Waiting a few days for it to dry out.

I once dropped mine on the toilet while I was taking a piss. still survived though.. It had the cap on... Not like it kept it dry

Aaand.. new topic born:

"What is the most cruel way you destroyed any piece of hardware ever?"

I once broke my computerscreen when shooting at stuff in my room with a homemade K'nex shotgun. Good times.

its coming... watchout o.o.

I've tormented my external hard disk SOO MUCH. It has gotten hit with my leg like 3 times, fallen on the floor over 50 times and so on. It still works.

You should always "safely remove hardware from pc" with usbstick. When usbstick is writing data, usbstick will get corrupt.

There is software that restores all the data on the usb-stick, if you really want it.

Unless it can stand "suprise removal".

[sarcasm] When you remove the usbstick while copying Minecraft on it, the game will, if played, include half blocks and spazzing cows [/sarcasm]

Why'd you use an usb-stick anyways. 4-Shared exists, you nobodies out there!

idk about u but i payed 80$ for mine... this shits like invincible!!

I pay'd 50eur for mine.

you guys, with your anti-breakable USB's mine was pretty decent, i dropped it a few times and it worked still. Until i fcking just nudged with my leg and it falls off the USB outlet and never stopped working? WTF?

What?

Oh wow. An external hard-drive with emptiness connection.

i meant to stay it just suddenly decided to stop working after a little nudge LOL.
