my usb is not working


I have a hp usb drive which is giving me tough time these days. Everytime I plug it in it asks me for the password which I had never set for it. As I ignore the password option and click on the open to view the files in the drive it does not allow me to see the files. I tried to format it so many times but again I was not able to do so . I don’t know what has happened to it but I know that it is really frustrating…..if anyone here know how to make it open again I would really appreciate

Try doing this; go to start, then control panel, then system, hardware tab, device manager > navigate down to USB root hub all of them. Right click on properties, then power management tab. Un check "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". Retry your USB Thumb drive... It should work now. Or right click on My Computer, click manage. Now click disk management on the left hand side. Search for your flash drive in the box then right click Now change drive letter and click change, try the letter G. Good Luck.
