4 Gb Micro Sd Card Not Recognized

Recommended Posts

I just bought a 4gb kingston MIcro SD card for My PC. Checked it at the shop on PPC, showed with 3.8GB or something.

Got back home and tried reading it using adaptor and card reader.

THe PC does not recognise it. It shows as a device but does not open/ format it.

PPC still does, can copy files on it as well. Used something called a flash format on PPC, but no use whatsoever.

Help would be appreciated.

I had a problem like this once, I took the card to my neighbourhood tech shop. He used some software to reflash the card and voila it started working. You can search for this kind of software on the net and try to this yourself.

4GB Card comes in SDHC Category and only SDHC Compatible Card Reader can read it !!!

90% Card in Market are not compatible with SDHC try to read using Laptops Internal Card Reader

or try Kingston MicroSD Card Read

I think 750 bucks for a 4GB sandisk is a v good buy. Just go for it and enjoy. If you try very hard for a cheaper price you might only save 50 bucks or so..

yeah, Rs.750 for 4 GB is a really good price? Is it from your local shop or online?

The lowest I could find was Rs.650 for 2 GB.

its from a local shop in Ludhiana. For 2GB he is asking Rs 450/-.

This shop is actually famous for selling chinese sets so I am doubting whether cards are of sandisk or chinese. Is there any way to track?

My dear Saurav, just check it, whether it is original Sandisk or a chinese one. As now a days the market is full of Chinese Sandisk Cards.

1GB - Rs.275/-

2GB - Rs.550/-

4GB - Rs.1050/-

price varies +/-25 to 50 for different make and dealer to dealer. but below this not possible. but if u get it then gr8.. i just bougt 4gb kingston for that much. transcend is 50 extra...

The 8gb version of SanDisk microSDHC comes bundled with a card reader,tanveer. I bought one yesterday, very quick card, I must add. Might seem a little expensive presently @ 2800 bucks, but I didn't have the patience to wait... :)

I think 6800 supports only upto 4Gb. It does not support 8Gb, only 6900 does. Pls Confirm...

Sorry boss, one of my friends here who runs an electronic store had specifically picked up the memory card just for me as I had been enquiring for it, that's why I did not take it from you.
