Delete all of the existing partitions and start over.

Ive tried to recover using some software aswell but still nothing changes. Ive tried formating the partition and rebooting and still nothing happens.

Some disk drives have jumpers to configure them for smaller sizes, to get around problems with compatibility with older systems. It might be possible to look up the drive model number on the manufacturer's website. Having said that, I think there was a limit to 32GB but I don't recall one at 3GB. I think it's most likely that the drive is junk.
