128MB USB 2.0 HP Drive Key now only 1.23MB

Anonymous · Post by **Anonymous** » Wed Apr 27, 2005 2:59 am

After formatting the drive key (as specified above) on my old Windows 98 SE OS, it now only has a capacity of 1.23MB. I now have a new OS (Windows 2000 Pro), but the drive key is still a measly 1.23MB. I've tried formatting it again, with Win 2000, but it doesn't make a difference. How can I fix it? Is it even fixable? Thanks for your help!

Welcome to the forum!

Hmm I never used those (suprising, given I'm a geek when it comes to storage

) but did it come with a special tool to format it? Windows is probably not reconizing it properly and formatting it wrong.

Oy, I have that Cruzer mini 128 mb drive. It said it had 123 mbs too. I still can't use it on my ME, it works on my dad's XP.

Have you tried putting more than 1.23 MB on it, or is it just saying that? Because it could just be an error. Trying putting a couple MB on it, if it works, then you probably stil have 123 MB.
