Default SD-Card problem

I have a problen concerning my SD-Cards
I have a 128 MBSandisk SD on which one edge of the housing opened where it was glued (or ultrasonic welded). Because of this I lost the little slider for the write-protection. The card is now write-protected and therefore of no use to me.
Maybe it is possible to unprotect the card by solderinfg a bridge, SMD-resistor or something simmilar elswhere on the card. The write-protection switch would not be important to me.
Last week this happened to me with my 256 MB Lexar as well.
So i have no memory-card for writing left.
Maybe somone already found a solution or a workaround for this ... i was searching the net since last week, but couldnīt find anything.

tnx in advance,

Sven

Just study the insides, it's probably just a contact/no-contact thing...

oohhh, itīs that simple ...
... not worth discussing in a group ...
Nothing to do with a contact-problem ... its just the outline of the card itsself. I just glued a piece of plastic in the place, where the switch used to be. There are no contacts on the PCB of the card itsself. Its just a matter of the outer shape of the card.

nevertheless, tnx a lot,

Sven
