Digital camera accessories

[Azizul Hilmi Zulkifli]

I have an Olympus Camedia C-370 zoom camera. I purchased a 64MB xd memory card for it. When I tried to format it by using a memory card reader, the process failed and the camera gave a "card error". I tried formatting the card on my computer but the computer couldn't read the card. It said that there is no disk in the drive.The same thing still happen after I erase the data using Aperase.exe. Does anybody know how the solution? I will really appreciate your help!!!

Hi Azizul,

Welcome to Digicamhelp.

Most recommend formatting a memory card in the camera only. You are not alone, though, in the problem you are experiencing. Several threads about XD card errors have been started in the Accessories section. Some are very long but contain information that has helped others fix the problem. If no suggestion in these threads work for you, I highly recommend you contact Olympus or the card manufacturer.
