I have a question also, how can you corrupt the Fat on these disks. I mean when I get these disks they are all 16 fat, In my mind who would want a 16 if there is a 32. I format them all to 32 and they have all been fine, excpet this one and maybe all the Lexars' Do you think that some are better run on 16 instead of 32 ?
mmmmmmmmmm????

Its all down to the Axim thinking certain SD cards are MMC cards... MMC cards have a simpler FAT table than SD cards, and the Axim writes to the card not knowing its nuking the SD card in the process. Dell knew this happened back in January '03...
As for FAT32, every brand's technical support yet has suggested NOT to format the card as FAT32. They all state that the card should be left as supplied...
Mind you, I don't really think it would mess up the card if the Axim would correctly work with SD cards...
