My laptop (2-year-old Dell Inspiron 1710) doesn't recognize the microSD card in the adapter it came with or in the spare adapter my 8GB card came with. Neither plays in the SDMMC slot or in the 64-in-1 USB writer-reader I've used for every other device I own.
However... I noticed that I have the option to format FROM my computer using the Disk option on the TP instead of ActiveSync. That's probably worth a try this weekend while I'm waiting to hear from the aData tech support people about a replacement.
Considering all the things that could go wrong and sometimes actually do go wrong, this is pretty low on the scale. I just thought someone else might have had the same issue.
