Ah. You are right about that. See, I passed algebra with a B last semester, and I am darned proud of that

Yeah, but the maps actually only are 16 gigs. I had just thought
of getting
everything on a 32 gig card so that I'd have extra room to put
POI files on
it. But if I divided the country up into regions, say maps 1, 2,
and maybe
9, on the first card, maps 3, 4, 5 on the second card, and maps
6, 7, 8 on
the third card, I could get by with 24 gigs, in other words three
8-gig
cards.

If you meant 32 gb you need 4 8 gb cards. 4*8 =32.

Well, my card was also a 32 gb Transcend. Despite a coupleformattingsessions, it seemed to only want to hold about 8 gigs. Today atwork I wastalking to a guy who's kind of a computer geek, and telling himabout myproblem, and he said FAT 32 can only hold 8 gigs. That wouldexplain myproblem, but that doesn't seem to be totally true, since everyoneelse seemsto be able to get 32-gig cards and pop them into their cardreaders and havethem work. And we tried this card with two different cardreaders, one ofwhich was purchased within the last year or so. I'm just aboutready to buythree 8-gig cards and divide the maps up among them, but I'dreally ratherhave everything on one card. I just don't want to order anothercard andnot have it work, so I'm not quite sure what direction to go fromhere. IfI could find a 32-gig card locally and bring it home and try itand they'dtake it back, I'd try again. Or perhaps there's a setting on mycomputerthat makes it not recognize big cards? I just wish I knew how toresolvethis.

Well then, I'd say Peggy's card is defective.

Peggy,
It's possible that you just got a defective card. It rarelyhappens,but it's still a possibility. Would it be possible to fit all themaps youwant on a 16GB CARD? I don't know if there's a size limit on cardstheM-Power can handle. You might also consider keeping your maps on aflash drive.

Hi, all. Well, I'm sending my card back to Newegg for a refund.I'vehad good luck with them in the past, and I still don't know what waswrongthis time. Someone suggested that perhaps my card reader can'treadhigh capacity cards, and that I should get a new card reader. But wetriedit on two separate readers, with the same results. If anyonediscovers aspecific card model that works with the BrailleNote for storingGPSMAPS, I'd love it if you could either post the link to the card, orme privately. I really want to get all the maps for this versionloaded.
Peggy <still wondering why this card wouldn't work, and whetherIordered the wrong thing, and how I can get the right thing http://kernsac.livejournal.com/
