Please Help me i got no time for this...i bought it trusting good cust reviews and your company and its essential for my work...Whether we replace it or not i need a sollution...

Kefrens Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Hi there, I have the same problem, but I`m from germany, should I send the stick back to amazon.de ? Or is it faster if I send it directly to CORSAIR Germany ? Oh by the way, If I want to foprmat it, it shows that only 496 MB could be formatted, but it`s an 1 GB stick. But if I press FORMAT the message " Device is write protected " comes up. Regards Kefrens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
