Hi Kathy, How long have you had this particular CF card? Cheers, Joseph P.S. Sometimes, the Flash memory fails after intense use.

I was then able to successfully copy the maps onto it. But on putting it back in the PK it still doesn't recognise it. Could I have made a mistake during formatting? When formatting it there was a choice of FAT32 or FAT and I chose FAT32. Also - now - I've just put the card back in the PC and it's again saying it's not formatted. I guess I should give up on this card?
