questions about flash drive and Win 98SE

[DJW]

I have some questions about my Verbatim 1 GB Jump/Flash drive I am
running windows 98SE
When I fill the flash drive up and then trash stuff does it open up
space on the drive? Are these type devices more picky about non
contiguous space. And if so can I use the Windows 98 Disk Defragmenter
to open up contiguous space? Can Scan Disk also be used to right
problems?
Lastly how do I format it. Do I just right click on it's drive letter
in the My Computer Folder and choose format?
I am asking all the above because I have been using my jump for a few
months now and have deleted some stuff and now when I try to write a
large amount of data to it I get a blue screen telling me a disk write
error has occurred.

Nothing like living life in the fast lane.

When I fill the flash drive up and then trash stuff does it open up space on the drive?
Yep.

Nope.

And if so can I use the Windows 98 Disk Defragmenter to open up contiguous space?

No point.

Can Scan Disk also be used to right problems?
Yes.

Lastly how do I format it. Do I just right click on it's drive
letter in the My Computer Folder and choose format?
Yes.

Answes
1.Yes some space will be created. for example if our flash capacity is
1 gb and you delected some file that the size is 200mb the remaining
space is
1,000mb( 1gb ) - 200mb = 800mb is the remaining space.

2. No Scan Disk

3. Lastly how do I format. That is a good question. To format your
flash disk
i. Go to my computer
ii. Right click your flash disk and click format.
iii. Then click START

That is all. if this information solved the problem please kindly
