Ok here is the story I have a oldish camera that will not accept the new SDHD cards up to 8GB plus.
So I have just bought 2 x 2 GB SD cards from a company via Amazon
(waiting for reply from seller)
Here is the problem:
Both cards take photos no probs and show in the camera screen perfectly.
But when I put them into the PC to view on screen/edit/save whatever the PC says the card needs to be formatted so I formatted both of them in the camera menu facility.
Back to taking more test pixs on both and again the PC asks for the cards to be formatted offering me to do it there and then in Windows....
.....So I let it do it and hey presto it tells me Windows was unable to format the frigging card!
Please can anyone throw any light on this as I am now stuck.
BTW the 1GB card I have used for a couple of years works fine.
And both the new ones are
