I'll download it anyway. I have a strange feeling I'm about to get rickrolled, but hes an admin, so I trust him.
EDIT: I doesn't look like anything is wrong there. One thing I noticed, when I plug it in, it shows the 750mb, then when I remove and plug in again, its 14.9gb, then next time its 750mb again. Also, whenever I fill it up more than 750mb, it gets wiped...
EDIT: If I get a new one, whats a good < $50 16gb drive I could get?

Well one last ditch effort:
Go into Linux/Ubuntu and open the partition editor and format the drive to FAT32 inside of Linux. Then go into Windows and use another partition manager to format it back to NTSF if you prefer that over FAT32. You can keep it as FAT32 it won't hurt anything. I had this problem a while ago with an external HDD one day it just showed 5.16GB as the capacity... it was an 80GB drive, and doing this worked for me. Windows I guess just has bugs when it comes to external storage.

Doesn't FAT32 not allow for anything greater than 4 gigs? Or am I thinking if Windows is formatted as FAT32? |

Nah OK I guess I should have expressed the FAT32 size limitation thing. OK FAT32 can handle capacities of up to 2TB BUT!!! here's the thing. Only if you format the drive outside of Windows. Windows limits the capactiy to 32GB when you format the drive as FAT32 in Windows, but will read a drive up to 2TB if it was formatted outside of windows.
Windows 2000 Professional and XP Professional cannot FORMAT a volume larger than 32 GB in size using their native FAT32 file system. But, they can READ a volume larger than that. I'm not sure how Vista/7 handles this which is why you should format the drive in Linux then go back to windows there you can either keep the FAT32 or go back to NTFS whichever you prefer. Supposedly 98/ME could format higher than 32GB but for some reason they limited it in 2000/XP I guess to push the NTFS format.
And I haven't ever tried it but, I'm not sure how modern partition managers in windows handle this. EASEUS or similar could probably format the drive in FAT32 over 32GB inside of windows, but like I said I haven't ever tried it so I don't really know either way it is best to use Linux to format anyway.

Americo went crazy with the Admin handouts, we were supposed to have a couple admins and the rest "techs" but americo just went and made everyone admin, i dunno, he's a nice guy and wanted to give people what he thought they deserved i guess. it wouldn't look as odd if we had more members posting though
