Ok, I bought a 256MB Sandisk CF card from best buy to use on my PPC... big mistake. It keeps messing up. For awhile it'll work fine, then one day I'll get a dialog that asked me if I want to format the card to make it readable. I do, then when I try and put data on it again it will write the data, then any attepts to write after that result in "the card does not have enough space on it" errors. Then I take the card out and put it back in and it dosn't work at all. Not even detected. Can anyone help at all, or show me a program I can run when this starts to happen to prevent data loss and such?
