You might have a bad drive, or you might be accidentally typing something incorrect in the command line.

The first section of the tutorial you can actually accomplish without the command line. Just go to disk management, right click the drive, and choose to format it in ntfs. If this produces an error then your drive could very well be failing.

If you can successfully format the drive from device manager, then you can proceed to step 5 of the tutorial.
 
Next step would be to try a low level format of your pen drive. Here's a link below to a tool to use:

If it comes up with an error please post it below. If you can't low level format the drive it is probably going bad.
