[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 617729, member: 13090"] I was going to ask earlier but didn't... Have you tried reformatting the SD card in your computer? I don't mean reestablishing the folder system like you do when you reformat the card in-camera, I'm talking about full-blown reformat of the file system using FAT32. This is the only way to correct potentially bad sectors on the SD card. Formatting in-camera is NOT the same thing at all. These are the steps for doing a true reformat of the SD cards file system. And, I suppose it needs to be stated: Reformatting the SD card file system will irrevocably wipe-out/delete/erase anything and everything on the card. Everything. Permanently. [B]Step 1:[/B] Bring up Desktop View If you are not already in Desktop View, bring up Desktop View by pressing the Windows key + D on your keyboard. [B]Step 2:[/B] Open 'Computer' Open up the 'Computer' window by pressing Windows key + E on your keyboard. [B]Step 3:[/B] Display right-click options Your SD card should be displayed in the 'Devices with Removable Storage' section. Right-click on your SD card to bring up the right-click menu options. Select Format. [B]Step 4:[/B] Format the SD card In the Format window make sure the correct File System is selected. It should be set to [B]FAT32[/B] Clear the check-box for "Quick Format"; you're going to do a proper of job things Click Start The formatting process will take several minutes... Like twenty, so put a kettle on the boil or something while you wait. Once the formatting is complete, the dialog box will close and you can remove the SD card from your computer. [B]Step 5:[/B] Format the SD card in your camera and... [I]Voilà![/I] You're done. [/QUOTE]
