i recommend the advice to FORMAT in the camera and should the camera not recognise that a card is inserted, then you must install the disc that came with it and try reformatting from that program. cheers ted ===================================== From: "Lilian" <lilian.oswaldocruz@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: Removable Disk (G:) Date: Sat, 31 Mar 2007 16:45:40 -0300 Before you scrap your camera memory card, check if the little tab to lock and unlock it (to stop you from recording)didn´t get switched on when you put it into computer. That happened to me once when I took it out of the memory reader. Maybe its not corrupted!

After that it wouldn't work in my camera. Called Olympus and the tech told me that I had corrupted the card. Only using the USB port and uploading was the correct way. Since the camera's instructions read like a Boeing 747 jet manual, I gave it to my 17 year old grandson who learned how to work it in a NY minute. Give me a computer any day!!! Judith ___________________ You're warm Sandi, It's a device you plug into a USB port, then take the memory card from your camera or other device and plug into it to load the contents on your computer. They usually read several different types of cards.I'd rather just use the USB cord that came with my camera, rather than removing the SD card all the time. Would be handy if you had a camera with a missing USB cable I suppose.
