Trouble with Fake 8GB that should be 4GB
I bought a 8GB MP3/4 player off ebay that now after running multiple tools I find out is a 4GB and I am having trouble getting the size right in checkflash so that it can be used as a 4GB drive. I was using this post http://mympx.org/forum/support-how/4...d-revised.html and I am doing something wrong because when done I am only getting disk error when trying to access the files on the drive. Below is the steps I followed to get it to a 4GB drive so it can at least be used.
1) Started Check Flash 2) Selected As Physical Device (NT Systems Only) 3) Selected device 4) Selected Write and Read test 4a) Selected Small pattern Set 5) Selected Low Level Initialization 6) Selected Start On the partition table that popped up on the 0 7) Selected New 8) Moved slider to 3.6 (FAT32) On the partition 1 9) Selected rest of dsik (FAT16) 10) Selected partition 0 and pressed Activate 11) Selected OK 12) Asked if I wanted to save changes to device selected OK 13) Box popped up asking to replug device, unplugged usb cable and re-inserted 14) When I got the windows box that asked what I wanted to do (open folder etc) I closed it and pressed the OK on the replug box 15) right clicked on the drive in windows and selected format 16) unchecked quick format (windows was unsuccessful so did a quick format) 17) put a few files on the device 18) went to music on the device and got a disk error What am I doing wrong to prevent me from using as a 4GB drive (USB Flash Tool reported the device to be a 4GB device)? |
I am definatly doing something wrong because when you go to settings -> memory after doing the above steps it shows it as 0%
