Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Fixing a microSD card

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
I've got a micro SD card in my bulletcam which has got corrupted. Laptop won't read/recognise when the cam is cabled up. I've tried formatting the card on a phone but can't seem to do it. My laptop doesn't have a direct card slot for micro SD. Any ideas how to at least get laptop to recognise it. Any reliable utilities I need?

Don't particularly care about losing existing data on card.

Thanks

get a way to read it on the laptop, usb adapter, SD->MicroSD adapter, then use standard windows tools to try and 'see' it, repartition and reformat.....

 Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

fatbob, I had a SD card which got corrupted, but using the standard windows tools it wouldn't reformat correctly (I think the standard tool tries to format as FAT32 (OK for hard disks, but I think SD cards use something called exFAT32?) . I then tried SDFormatter from the SD association and it worked a treat. I think it will work with micro SD just as well.

I think it i a case of trying several devices to format the card. I had error messages (forget the details) on an SD card recently. I think the third machine I tried 'claimed' to have formatted the card and it seemed to work OK after that.

 Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I was also recommended to try SDFormatter - I've got version 2 on my desktop.
