Have you tried this format command after you are at the command prompt format <your drive letter> /q /fs:fat32

I just tried to format an unusable USB pendrive that I had (due to removing it without first disabling it I suppose) I used the program from here http://en.kioskea.net/download/download-... that I had from previously making a USB drive bootable, and it worked. So give it a try and see if it works for you. http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/8366 has more information about how to access a corrupted USB drive with Linux.

You can try using something more powerful than <Put int your OS> stock format tool. I would recommend GParted - you will be able to see if there are partitions, verify, delete, reformat, etc. If that will not help, most likely you will end up throwing that usb away.

This might also work to see if you can get any information/files of the drive. Of course only if they have not yet been overwritten.
