1. Obtain access to a PC with a CompactFlash card reader
attached.
2. Place the CompactFlash card into the reader and ensure that
you can access it.
3. There are many ways to format a CompactFlash card from
within the Windows environment, and only one is outlined
here. If for some reason you need to use another method,
consult your Windows documentation. Open Windows Explorer or
My Computer and select the appropriate drive that refers to
the CompactFlash card.
4. Press SHIFT F10 to access the context menu.
5. Choose Format from the popup menu.
6. A dialog will be presented with a number of different
properties that can be set on the CompactFlash card and the
one of interest is the one entitled "File System." Ensure
that FAT is chosen from this combo box and not FAT32.
7. Navigate to the Start or OK button and press ENTER. You will
be presented with a warning dialog, explaining that
formatting will destroy all information on the card. If you
are happy with this then you should choose Start or OK and
continue with the formatting.
