Try to re-format it using a PC and a card reader. If that fails, try to claim for warranty. If that doesn't work, then it's time to buy a new Memory Stick.

Bro baka during na format mo ang memory stick nabura din ang operating system na nakainstall dito kaya every time na gagamitin ito puro memory na lang ito at nawala na yun OS na factory installed dito, kasi sa SD kung 512MB ito at tiningnan mo sa computer ang memory capacity nito minsan 510MB na lang kasi ginamit na ng OS, at itong OS ay kasamang nabura, saan ka ba nagformat kasi kung sa computer nalaman na bura ng, pero kung saan ginagamit lang yan like camera ang mabubura lang ay mga pictures hindi ang OS, yan ay sa pagkakaalam ko lang.

i-reformat mo yan to FAT and _NOT_ FAT32. ganun lang ginagawa ng MMC Medic.

raine, walang sariling operating system and mga non-volatile memory devices. baka ibang term ang gusto mo sabihin.
