Hp Format Tool Sd Card Download
I ordered a bunch of 1GB usb drives from a. Most of them work just fine, but a couple of them won't let me format them because they are 'write-protected.' There is no write protection switch on the device. I have exhaustively tried the following: • Windows format: 'The disk is write protected' • HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool: 'Device media is write-protected' • Changing registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SYSTEM CurrentControlSet Control StorageDevicePolicies to 0 • diskpart clear attributes readonly • diskpart clean: 'Diskpart has encountered an error: The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error.
See the System Event Log for more information.' (The System Event Log only contains the error: The IO operation at logical block address 0 for Disk 1 was retried.) •: 'Format Error occurred at offset 985,595,904: 1117 - Device I/O error' and hundreds of similar errors • Sacrificing a lamb to the USB gods • Starting in safe mode with command prompt and running format, diskpart, and chkdsk So do all these I/O device errors mean that these USB drives are just totally screwed? Is there any way to get more information about the problem?
