Problems with Compact Flash (CF) Card
Hello,
I bought a new CF card. It was working fine and then I decided to format it. Now Windows Vista does not recognise the CF card any more and asks me to format it again. When I try to Format, Windows tells me that it cannot Format the CF Card. I enter in the Device Manager and the CF card is recognised as having two partitions and the format type is RAW. I looked on the Internet and I read that I should delete all partitions and create a new one of type FAT. However device manager does not allow me to delete the partitions there are. I downloaded the trail version of easy recover and this does allow me to view the files on CF card (Note I do not need these so I am happy to just do a format). Does anyone have any suggestion on how I can make this CF card work again? That is from where I can remove the partitions and re-format? Regards, Sim085

Click on the globe>in the instant search field type diskmgmt.msc and hit enter. It should see the CF card. When it does right click it and select format and tell it to format as FAT32 and give it a try.
