Cant acesss my USB Flash Drive.

I am trying to access my USB Flash Drive. Its a Kingston Data Traveler U3. It was encripted using Bitlocker.

I am running windows 64 Bit Ultimate that i had to do a reinstall of.

When i insert the drive it says it needs to be fornatted. The drive capacity is full though so i am assuming the files are there. CHKDSK does not work as the file system is Raw.

Windows says Bitlocker says its switched Off.

I have a copy of the Certificate in the Personal Information Format but this is no help.

Any ideas?

Thank You :)

Yes, it was working fine but i had to reinstall Windows due to the Screen going black for a reason i could not determine.

When i did the reinstall i spotted on the BIOS that it had tried to change it to the first boot drive.

I have the Encription Key in the Personal Information Exchange Format saved on a DVD.
