looking for specific USB flash drive software

[rickety_goodman]

I have a flash drive which shows up in WinXp drive management with a drive letter, but says
"No Media". I don't ever remember buying a flash drive that didn't have a file system on it, so
I'm wondering if I used it while I was repairing an NAS problem (LINUX?)
I really don't want to tear down and reconfigure my NAS setup just to see if this flash drive
was formatted by Linux.
Is there a program besides "Testdisk" which can recognize multiple file structures and let me
know if there is anything at all on the drive or if it's totally blank and just needs to be
formatted?
Testdisk lists my hard drive and my other 2 flash drives, but that's all.
All of the information that I find on Google is for programs that
a) require a drive letter assigned to media
b) write to the disk to verify it or format the disk to "recover" (recycle) it.

Thanks

Go to disk management. If it shows as just "Healthy" then it is in a file system windows can not read. there are a few free programs that will allow you to access it on windows. Search around for Ext3/4 software for windows.

The only thing that shows is:
on the left, it says "Disk 3", and assigns the drive letter "G:"; under that it says "No Media"
on the right, where there is usually a white box with information, there is nothing.
If Xp cannot enumerate a drive, I am used to seeing it listed as "Mass Storage Device" WITHOUT a drive letter.
But in this case, it is apparently enumerating the drive, but sees nothing on it?
If I format it, can I use the format command that shows up when I right-click the drive letter? Or does it have a reserved section that shouldn't be
bothered.

Thanks
