Right click he drive and select properties.
Go to the tools tab and select Error Checking.
Check both the checkboxes and click on start. (If you have XP, Procedure diff for diff OS)

After that you can also try to format the drive once.

If still nothing works, then try and exchange the drive under warranty.
Transcend provides lifetime warrantee provided you had registered on their website. You need the bill for that though.

There's a software which even defrags your pen drive(darn, I can't remeber the name properly), but I really don't know if its safe.

I think 'HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool' is very useful tool,you can google it and it is a Freeware.

There are many softwares. Even the Default Windows Softwares defragments Pen drives, Diskeeper does, O&O Defrag does.

Can you provide us with a little more detail? Does the file open or does a read error pop up (0x000000), something like this. Does the image open in Notepad or some Imaging Application?

Copy all the data on your Pen Drive to your hard drive.

Format it once and run a scan disk. See if there is some error on the Drive.

Does it happen with any image file or only one image?

yaa i had tried this before........
It happens to more than 50% of images stored in Pen Drive.....
And Yaa one thing more When i Compress(Zip) the file.....My data doesn't get corrupted.........

But i cant see any reason for that to happen.
Try out one more option, instead of opening the files directly from the pen drive, copy the image files to the hard disk and then open it.

Which application do you use to open the images? try opening the images using 2 3 other applications using the open with option. You can try Pictures and Fax viewer , MS Paint, and any other if you want.

Have you recently installed any photo editing/managing software recently that could cause this problem? Recently, I installed Zoner Photo Studio and after that, sometimes my thumb drive gave problems unless I zipped them.

FORMAT YOUR DRIVE AND THEN PLACE AUTOEXEC.bat in it and hide it.. IT WILL GIVE FULL COMPATIBLITY TO YOUR EVERY FILE..

and also give your drive a scan,,
