I use mbrwiz to wipe the master boot record ( http://mbrwizard.com ), specifically 2.0b version for Windows. Once I unplug and reinsert the USB drive it reinitializes to a clean disk without U3. Keep in mind that this will remove ALL data on the disk! I use the following method under Windows XP: - Download mbrwizard for windows. Unzip and copy it to c:\ - Shell out to a command prompt: Start->Run, type cmd.exe - Start by listing the disks in the system: mbrwiz /list - Identify the disk by the total size as well as the volume label. Find the Disk # associated with this disk. - Wipe the MBR, using the disk # from above, assuming 2 for this example: c:\mbrwiz.exe /disk=2 /wipe=mbr
Once the process is complete simply eject the disk. I typically reinsert the disk into a different USB port, it seems like it helps Windows identify it as a new disk.
