Hello,
I use WinFlashTool:
http://winflashtool.sysprogs.com/
On Windows.
But if you have access to another Linux machine do this to zero the card
before you proceed:
sudo dd bs=1M if=/dev/zero of=/dev/xxx
Where xxx is the device name of your SD card, for example /dev/sdd. If
it is an SD card reader it may be /dev/mmcblk0 or something like it.
Or you could use fdisk to delete the partitions before you go further
