    Error Fomat

    I Have A Problem. I Have Gateway Dc-t50 5.25 Megapixe's. My Camera Takes Great Pictures When I Use A 32 Mb Sd Card. But When I Upgrade To A 256 Mb Card I Keep Getting Error Format After I Put The Card In My Card Reader. I Already Formated The Card Before I Started To Take Picture's With My Camera. I Even Scan The Picture's In My Camera Lcd Screen. But When I Put Card My Reader No Pictures Only A Folder That Say's Dcim - Is Not Accessible. The File Or Directory Is Corrupted And Unreadable. But My 32 Mb Card Work's Fine.

    Please don't type in all caps, that isn't great ettiquette on forums (considered shouting at someone).

    Have you tried formating the 256MB card in your camera and then seeing if the card reader will read the files ?

    What Card Reader are you using ?

    What Operating System are you using ?
