Linux Ubuntu won't open my memory stick?

[J0ySp1c3]

I downloaded a driver to my sparklan usb adapter (wireless network adapter)
for my Linux Ubuntu computer in a zip. folder ready to be installed on a memory stick. When i connect the memory stick (on my other Linux ubuntu computer, this is a laptop that i'm using), nothing happens. I can't view the folder. Anybody that knows what might be causing this, and if you know and are using Linux Ubuntu already, any solutions ? :wave:

If it has U3 technology, you will need to format the stick completely and remove U3.

Hmm, just how do i remove U3 and format the stick?

format the stick as if it were a regular hard disk in FAT32.
I am not familiar with linux, but in windows go to disk management in the control panel. Delete the partitions in the stick, create a new partition with the entire stick memory and format it.
