    Unhappy Memory Card Problem

    I have two 128 MB memory cards for my FUJIFILM FinePix A340. One of them works fine, and one of them doesn't work at all. When I put the card that doesn't work in the camera, it reads and says "Card Error". I cleaned it and it still doesn't work. Does anyone know why it's not working or know what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.

    These small cards don't seem to be as durable as the larger CF cards. Try reformatting the bad card. If that doesn't work, I'd guess its toast and you need to buy a replacement.

    Re: Memory Card Problem

    Have you tried getting in touch with the manufacturer of the card it might be covered under warranty if it is faulty.

    As Michael said, try reformating the card if you can in a card reader that might be better as the camera can't read the card.

    Re: Memory Card Problem

    It's just that I have really good pictures on the card that doesn't work and I don't want to get rid of them. I don't have a card reader. When I want to upload the pictures onto my computer, I just put the card in this slot at the front of the computer. So, how would I reformat the card?
