USB Flash partitioning

A while ago I was messing around with installing Windows XP from a USB stick. I couldn't get it to work and ended up using a CD as I had previously. I haven't touched the USB stick since.
Now that I needed to use it again for something different I notice there's only 2 gb visible on it. It's an 8 gb stick and all 8 gb where available before I started messing with this bootable USB. Clearly I have done something that somehow partitioned it in a way. What can I do to un-do this?

reformat it?
I'm taking whatever coverage I can get, because frankly, I'm busy working on this million dollar deal at my job. Early retirement is a good thing brotha man. - MessengerASL

Copy any files you have in it that you need onto some other folder. Then format the flash drive. That's the only thing I can think of.

Formatting did nothing. This was on Windows XP which has no option of deleting the partitions. I ended up finding a utility called BOOTICE that luckily could restore it to its original state.
