[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1130475, member: 46727"] Because reformatting a flash drive is almost never necessary. And as I stated above, reformatting usually causes problems - especially when using Disk Utility. See the following [URL="http://pitumbo.com/how-delete-gpt-partition-or-efi-mac-hard-disks-vista-or-xp"]LINK[/URL] for a remedy. After cleaning the drive with the procedure I linked you to, you'll need to create a partition on the drive and then format it. Do not use Disk Utility, use Disk Manager from Windows instead.
