I have previously had problems with the MD drive which I've learned to live with. However now I have SD problems.
I installed WMStorage to access my SD and MD from my PC. When I deactivated it, my SD card was invisible on my Ameo. i did a soft-reset and now the 2GB SD card is only recognised as 1GB. I have tried reformatting in the Ameo and on the PC. Still it stays at 1GB.
My card is a Corsair 2GB card.
Ideas?????

I also had a corrupt mini sd card... I have a sandisk 2gb mini sd and I have copied TomTom from the original (supplied) minisd onto the 2gb card and have added a few programs and films. I was happily using TomTom in the car when it stopped working...I removed the card and reinserted (which I had done on a previous occasion and it restarted TomTom ok) This time no luck...When I got home I tried to get all my information off the card using the card reader on my laptop.... It showed the correct amount of data on the card but showed only a few TomTom files nothing else....I couldn't copy anything from the card onto the pc.... I tried to format the card in the laptop but it wouldn't format..... I put the card back into the Ameo and did a low level format using pocket mechanic ok..... Then I recopied (using the laptop) all the TomTom files again and a few programs but not any films.... So far all is good...I suspect that I had left too little space on the card, which is why it locked up!! I may be wrong here...all input welcomed :)

I tried low level formatting - it didn't work. Decided in the end to take the card back to the shop (as fortuntaley i didn;t byuy this one from ebay). will see if it happens again. Unlikely to be a dodgy chip, though???
