CF Card problem

endsljc · 11-10-04, 12:25 PM

I have 2 256MB CF cards for my Axim X5. One works fine, showing 244.48MB total memory. The other shows 0.47MB total memory.

Do these cards need to be formatted?

what brand is the card? still have a warranty?

I am having exactly the same problem. My Sandisk CF card (256Mb) shows only 470Kb. I've tried formatting using a card reader and Pocket Mechanic. Neither worked, card still shows 470kb. Ideas?

I bought two 256M SanDisk CF cards from Dell when I bought my X5 back in July. The other one is working fine.

There is a 1 year warranty, but I didn't want to return it if the card was OK and I was missing something.
