Need Help USB is Not Working
Hi everyone!
Im having problems with the USB Flash Units...
I have tested 5 non-label usb flash units, but all of then dont work...
A couple of days later, I found my old "Kingston DataTraveler DTI 1GB USB 2.0"... but this doesnt work neither...
So, I try to buy some of the listed USB Drives on the compatibility list... Finally found a cheap one via eBay, im talking about the
"Sandisk Cruzer Micro U3 [USB2.0] 2048MB Flash (SDCZ6-2048) (tested after removing U3 partition)".
The Sandisk Drive arrived today, so Ii formated the USB, and take off the U3 software, i also fotmated following the steos of the "USBFATXFormatter".....
But when i plugged into the Xbox using a USB Female cord, my Xbox keep saying "Unit isn't functioning, it may be damaged"....
Please help me out... what else can I do, when this 2 USB Flash, are in listed as compatible but are not working.
Sorry for my english.

Re: Need Help USB is Not Working
if you run windows run "diskpart" fro CLI and preform the command "clean" on the disk some disks have hidden partitions and this can cause them to not work on the xbox.
I have an apacer one and I had to do that to make it work on the xbox as it had a hidden partition with the device icon and a bunch of self install utilities to hide a partition with a password.

Re: Need Help USB is Not Working
I tried everything I had , there were many with no luck so eventually gave up. and bought a kit with cable hand memory card off eBay , the card they sent was I think a 32 Mb one cheap looking non branded , worked a treat so if you have any really old ones try them . I'm pretty sure I also read someone used an old digital cameras internal memory to get the exploit on .
Is there nothing that can be done on a PC with them to help the Xbox read them ?
