Storage Card2??? Never said that before

**JackSchitt28** · #1 (**permalink**) 02-02-2007, 01:35 PM

Hey guys, i know i have seen a post around here somewhere about my issue, but I cant seem to find it for the life of me. anyways, my storage card has now started showing up as storage card2. when i go to file explorer i have both, storage card, and storage card2. i formatted it and it did not fix it. does anyone have a clue as to why it does this and how to fix it? thanks in advance.

It sees you're ext rom as a storage card as well, cause of the way you unlocked it. so, when it sees you're real storage card, it sets that to a name of "storage 2".

You need to find the registry edit and rename you're external, or probably simpler, just hard reset and redo the rom-unlock process

isn't this from using unlock.ext.rom.wizard.cab ?
personally, it doesn't bother me, but yeah, from what i remember, it's the unlock method you use.

did you install any applications recently that access the Storage card?

i have always used napster to go to send music to my storage card. it is the only thing i use that has access to it. thats how i noticed it, when i connect my ppc to my pc, then open napster, it discovers my device so I can xfer songs, well you have to pick PPC-6700 to send the songs to or Storage Card, thats when i saw it as Storage Card2. i have been doing this for months with no issues. when i open activesync and go to explore my ppc, then go to the storage card, i see storage card and storage card2, when i delete storage card and try and rename storage card2 to "storage card" it tells me access denied and then when i exit and go back, they are both there again. i dont want to hard reset just to find it is the same exact way it is now.

The problem is that in your email settings\storage you have save attachments on storage card checked. take the storage card out, delete the first storage card and put the storage card back in. This happens when you reboot and the device doesnt immediately find the storage card. It creates one for the attachments to be put in.

It is not the Ext. Rom that it sees. Mine is unlocked and shows it like it should- Ext. Rom.

I too have Storage Card 2 and a regular folder displaying the name Storage Card. Why this occurs is because of the change in the registry for PIE Cache or another app that runs like that such as Pic/Vid to store it's files on the Card. Something happens wrong and then it does this. I am unsure how to fix it.

EDIT: Just saw the post above mine.
