[QUOTE="fotojack, post: 97744, member: 16"] Right there, that tells me you haven't even opened your owners manual! Look up in the Index about formatting your SD card in camera. That's where you ALWAYS format your cards! Steps for formatting the SD card directly in the Nikon D3100 Step 1: Turn on the camera and have the SD card inserted in the slot in the camera. Step 2: Using the control button on the side of the display screen, press the "Menu" button. Step 3: There is a vertical menu bar on the left side of the display. Using the circular navigation controls, arrow left and go to the icon which looks like a mechanic's wrench. Click the "ok" button to select this option. Step 4: This is the Setup Menu. You will see an option called "Format memory card". Arrow down to this option and press the "ok" button. Step 5: Once pressed, you will see a warning which states " All images on memory card will be deleted. OK?". If you are sure you have already saved all your images arrow up to "yes" and press OK to continue. The Nikon D3100 will then quickly format the SD card within a few seconds and it will be ready to store new images. [/QUOTE]
