Re: memory stick

When you say you do not have any access to it - does that mean that the "safely remove device" button does not show it?

Re: memory stick

Word of advice: Never keep important data on a flash drive only without backing it up somewhere else....these things are notoriously unreliable and can fail at anytime.
They should only be used for data transfer from one host to another!

Sounds like yours has bitten the dust.
If it wont work on other systems then we can safely rule out any issues with your USB connection i'd say.

Sorry dude, but i guess you have learnt a lesson with this.
