This morning, my PDA suddenly showing many missing programs, all that I installed on SD Card disappeared!!. When I use File Explorer, it only shows that I have only 2 folders, Mail Attachment and Temp.. where are the rest??

The weird thing is that when I look at the capacity (using card reader)... it shows that I only have 300MB Free space, 700MB in use, which is about right. But why can't I see them? These two folders are only less than 1MB. Can anyone give me suggestion what to do? I'd like to retrieve all that are in my SD Card.

All comments would be greatly appreciated. Thx

this happens in case the refernce bit from the fat table is lost.. not in case when MFT IS GONE

this guy had his mft dropped

It's happpened to me last week. When I inserted back SD card, card couldn't be read and asked me to format. I check with Pc it's also same. What I frustated most, My 2GB SD card becomes 1GB after reformating. What's wrong and how to gain back my previous 1GB?

This is really weird.. I think my SD card needs to retire.

After playing with it, I just couldn't bring back all the files and folders in my SD card, so I decided to reformat it and reinstall everything back again. After I finished reinstalling everything.. I was happy and I soft reset the SD Card again and boom, everything disappeared again, only Mail Attachment and Temp folders that were there..

This SD card is going to waste bin.
