Right, so just type in what I say to type into a command prompt (a batch file would do fine, also)
Type 'DISKPART'
Type 'List Volume'
Type 'Select Volume x', x being your drive
Type 'Clean'
Type 'Create Partition Primary'
Type 'Format fs=ntfs quick label=test', 'test' being the label you want (You can change this easily later)
Type 'Assign letter <x>', 'x' being the drive letter you want
Type 'Exit' to finish up.

Sorry this didn't work for me.
When select volume I saw Volume 9 K My64Gig NTFS Removable 60Gig nothing under status
I then entered the select volume 9 an was told volume 9 was selected..ok so far nothing bad so far...
I then entered Clean and got this. There is no disk selected. Please select a disk and try again.
I did these instructions 3 times with same results.
Oh Lexar couldn't help me either..
What now??




 


Sorry for the late reply but I thought like I should reply anyway.
Try it again and make sure you select the correct volume.
