This is caused by a failure or malfunction in the USB controller chip. It causes the Memory chip to not be read by the operating system as a storage space, appearing only as an empty "removable disk" like a floppy drive with no disk in it.

Generally no fix for this, return under warranty. Some usb sticks will have this problem intermittently at first...take a tip....get your data off!
