• Satellite 2450-201: impossible to format SD card 4 GB card

  Hello

  IA´m an owner of Satellite 2450-201 and I have a big problem.
  I just bought a 4 GB SD memory card and Nice, it adapts to the side slot on my laptop.

  This is the first time using the memory card, so a needs-to-format window appears when I try to access.

  The window has the right information: 3.78 GB, Fat32,...

  I click 'OK' and informs the Windows (XP SP2): impossible to complete format (here is Portuguese, then it is translated into English)

  If the correct size is informed, 3.78 GB, why windows can't format it?

  My laptop is virus and spyware free (only 23 spots in the running and supervision), I have SP2, Bios (most recent) 1.50, SD my controller drivers is up to date (the last and the only one that was released in 2003).

  Also tried third party "Panasonic SDFormatter 2.0". He reports the (physical) unit or the mem SD stick is not compatible with the program. And the same effect occurs: the Sd device lost the nice icon and I need to remove/insert the SD card to see again the same story.

  Help me please, friends.

  Hello

  It of very strange that you re possible to see the plugin SD card. Some people suggested that this SD card supports only 256MB, 512 MB cards and more with no MMC support.

  I put t know if you have a format utility Toshiba SD card installed on the laptop, but on many notebooks of utility such Tosh is preinstalled and could be used for formatting of the card.

  According to some poster in this forum the Portege M400 utility format could handle 2 GB, but not sure about 4 GB SD cards.
  If possible, you can try to install this utility on your laptop, but you know you don't have much chance that it works.

  I think that in this case only an external SD card reader will help you.

• Impossible to format my Sandisk Ultra Plus 16 GB MicroSD

  Hi, I bought this product about an hour ago from Bestbuy. It was sealed in his case, there is no way, it was a homecoming.

  When I insert the SD card with the inside microSD adapter to my computer, it asks to format the drive. Then the Format Windows removable disk appears and says that my card is 30.6 MB... When I click on Start to get in shape, with the default given the options, it returns back that it is impossible to format.

  I tried the SD Formatter 4.0 card. He says that it is write protected, even if the switch is not in write protect mode.

  I have a MicroSD USB Reader. I tried this way too, and it does not work.

  I would like to get assistance.

  I found my problem.
  As well my card reader USB MicroSD and SD of the laptop slot could not format/read it. I don't know for what reason. But they were a couple of years.
  Today, I bought a new card reader. I could open the drive very well and format.
  Hope this helps some people.

  Have you tried formatting cmd.

  First try this, type Format H:/q cmd (where h is the drive letter of your)

  You can also format the key USB by right-clicking Start to go on the computer

  Management then disk management , then you can click right on your

  USB key for formatting.

  If it doesn't not solve your problem, then try on way:

  Right-click on the service Start , and then click the command prompt (Admin).

  Now, in cmd type diskpart , and then type list disk you can see the disk

  number and size to find you which disk is your USB. If you

  don't have not connect another disc Disk 1 then maybe your USB key.

  Type select disk 1 then type Clean . After that, type create partition primary

  who creates the new partition, and then type select partition 1 to choose who

  partition after the category active then format fs = ntfs quick where fs is the

  system files of your pen drive now type assign to assign the drive letter.

  Get out now cmd.

  You can also use the software Hp format or Format usb drive to format

  your pen drive, search it in google.
