Change system fine raw to ntfs Closed

Question

Hello, 
I recently purchased a 64 gb pendrive (Kingston) . I tried to format it, but during formatting its file system changed into RAW from NTFS and not formatted at all. It is not opening at all, showing the "disk is not formatted". When I am triyng to format it in NTFS it is showing pendrive cannot be formatted.  

Please helpme to overcome this problem.


Configuration: Windows XP / Internet Explorer 6.0

Dear Sanjay,  

It should be that there is write protection on the pen drive. Please confirm the issue and have it removed through the following instructions.
