HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool

I had this problem with my USB flash memory stick: During a new install of WinXP Pro I deleted all partitions seen at WinXP partition manager which unfortunately included my USB Flash Drive which was still left plugged. When I plugg it in, message pops up that I should formate it. If I try to format the flash drive using WinXP I get the message "Windows was unable to complete the format".
I was looking for answers by visiting forums, sending mails to technical support, but nobody had a solution. I solved it by using HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool.
Its usefull piece of software and I think that everybody should have it in basic software collection.
