Default Card reader won't read SD card

I searched but only found people having trouble mounting their cards. Ever since I partitioned my 8 gig class 6 card, my computer won't recognize the FAT32 partition. It reads it when I mount in with my G1, but I'd really like to be able to use it with the card reader again. Has anyone else had this problem?

here's the scoop some sdcard readers do not read the high capacity cards well.
i have 2 pc's with sdcard readers one cant read any class 4 or 6 devices after formatting to fat32 my other which is newer read all cards no matter what parttion is on it. if you have the 1 gig card that came with the g1 that will work fine for flashing devices.

Some things can be summed up to user error. If 95% of the people have no problem it must be your problem.

Format your card. That should fix your issue. Be sure and copy what folders you can, to back up.

that's kinda a hard one since the sdcard reader won't read the card and formatting through android still causes the issue it's the sdcard reader i've had this issue and using a different reader fixed it.

Ah, good to hear! I thought it was just one partition that was missing. I had one really bad issue with a corupted sd card that won't read. The sd reader was good but claimed the card was not there. After reinserting and clicking quick format about 50 times, the pc finally recognized the dead card and formated it. After that, no major issues since. This was with my old HTC Wizard. Old mini sd card. I love the micros but are kinda hard to handle (literally) and mobile phones have finally settled on one format (used to be a combo of mini and full size sd and the occasional micro (newer) ). Plus, brand name matters somewhat... sansdisk is pretty good. Pny is also pretty good for a cheaper brand. Class also matters now which is kind of odd but makes sense. Kind of like hard drive read/write speed. Tech is always changing and you can get left in the dust after 6 month of no research. Fun though... will always be my hobby and my job foremost. Sorry for long-winded reply... lol
