I've had a Silicon Power 32GB flash drive for about 4 years now, and it has worked flawlessly. One day I brought it to school to move some files over. It worked without any problems, but I do remember putting it in and out of the computer multiple times.
When I get back home and I try to connect it to my PC, strange things happen...
Are there any options I have from here, or is the stick as good as dead?

- The PC doesn't seem to recognize it (a drive shows up under "This PC", but trying to open it just gives "Please insert a disk into drive D:")
- The LED on the stick just stays on instead of flashing
- And, the most pressing issue, the stick heats up very quickly
