Default Media Card won't format - 03-17-2009, 07:11 PM

A friend just got an 8GB Media Card, but it won't format in his BB 8320 nor on a PC.

He first tried it in his BB: selected the 'Format' option, but it just froze repeatedly whenever he tried.

He then tried it in a PC with an adapter: but it said error formatting.

Any suggestions???

Right click the Media Card go to properties, go to the tools tab, run the error checking utility.(Checking Both boxes).

See if that runs then try formatting it.

If that doesn't work you will need to get a new card.


For the first time I feel the future might hold something different for me. It's possible I'm fooling myself but I'm willing to take the risk.
