Could you tell us what flash drive you have? And how it got to be raw in the first place?

And are you sure repartitioning it doesn't work? If so then my guess is that it's probably corrupt. If you received it like this straight from the store then I would turn it back in for a refund and get a new one. Otherwise I'm curious as to how it got this way in the first place, as that may shed some light to a viable solution.

How bout trying Linux Live CD. I use this procedure when Windows is having difficulty in formatting any HDD.

Puppy Linux is lightweight and has GParted. http://puppylinux.org/main/Download%20Latest%20Release.htm

DL the image and burn. Make your DVD drive your first boot device.

Use GParted and see if it can hack it.

1. Make sure you've identified the right USB drive
2. Delete the partition.
3. Create a new partition. Format (FAT or NTSF it's up to you)
4. Apply

HTH
