[happyface-PSG]

well last night my external hdd crashed and i lost all my backed up games

so i ordered a new one but i wanted to play a game while i wait NBA 2K11.

so i got the nba backup on my 8gig flashdrive played the game and my save data wont load. i look at my game save data and its labled as the name of the last backup (blus30574)

so i get that backup (THIS IS WERE I THINK I MESSED SOMETHING UP)so while i was getting the correct backup i thought i should reformat my flashdrive even tho it was already fat32 i never did it so i thought id do it real quick through swissknife.

so after i reformat i get the correct backup on the flashdrive plug it in and the ps3 wont recognize it.

i tryed my lil 2gig an it found that,and the usb plugs are chargng the controller so now im lost.

i tryed reformatting it alot. through windows an swissknife,any help would be GREATLY appreciated
