ppc 6700 with 4G memory card

[Dice]

i recently bought a 4G memory card and i put it on my ppc and it shows up as their is not memory card installed any help

my SD card is a MICRO SD HC

Have you tried another card to see if it shows up? Did you try formating the new card on your PC first? I'd try these things first... if no joy then try the drivers found in post 13 of this thread.

thats the thing i dont have a card reader i just got my phone an a camera that reads sd dont no if that will help

I don't know much about cameras... I only have 2 digi cams... anyway on my cameras I can link to my PC and format, move files and on by linking to the card... you may try that with your camera and the problem card to see if you can get it formated. Its probably a driver issue though... the drivers I linked SHOULD fix it.

BTW did you buy the phone used? if so it could also just be a BAD card reader... I should know... when I picked up my 2 phones for me and the wife one of them had a bad card slot... cost me 35 bucks to get it fixed. I would have been pissed at the seller since he didn't tell me it was bad... I figured since I got BOTH phones and some extras for $150 I did good even with having to get the slot fixed.

BTW what was wrong with my slot was a TINY little arm that made a contact point and activated the card when inserted... basicly a switch... it was tweaked and had to be replaced... the guy showed me the MICRO solder joint he had to make... I can solder OK but this guy was GOOD with an iron.

na it works couse i had a 2g on it an it worked just fine then i returned the 2g and picked up the 4g since it was 5 extra bucks then what i normally paid and when i put the card into my camera it does not show in the pc also i downloaded the drive but nothing happens

So... this new 4g card fails to read in two devices with the latest drivers? if so, I'd take it back... sounds like you got a bum card
