I've had more than a few times when I've thought my DOC was completely dead, 
and I've always been able to revive it with an older M-Sys utility called 
"docpmap.exe".  I recall that this command could be dangerous - it had the 
ability to completely erase the DOC, including the bad block table.

I don't think this utility is available anymore, but similar functionality may 
be available through command line options to DFORMAT.

It's also possible that eraseall and nftl_format under Linux could fix things 
up, but that may trash the BBT as well.
