I have a Kingston 2GB pen drive.Until recently it was working fine.Once I
tried to boot from it.After that it is behaving strangely.It gets recognized
and appears in
My Computer also.But when I try to open it it promptes me to insert a disk
in the drive although I have already inserted the drive.Uninstalling and
reinstalling the driver also didn't work.Please tell me what I can do to
solve this.Thanks in advance.

Try formatting if it will allow that. (Right click on icon in My
Computer). I assume you ran some software to make it bootable.

Have you tried to use other pens, to test your drivers? Have you tried
to test this pen on other PCs?

Thanks for your reply.Yes I've tried using other pen drives like Transcend
and they work fine on my PC.I've also tried using this pen drive on another
PC running XP and I got the same error.

In that case, try to format the pen.
