Haha had I known I would've tried it. Though as it is, it's to late (sent the card off and I'm getting it back tomorrow). Though next time this happens I'll be sure to try partioning it over and over.

gparted on a Linux PC should solve any problems, unless the card is completely dead.
As for Kingston cards, Kingston doesn't manufacture SD cards. They just buy them from Toshiba, Panasonic, or SanDisk and put their own labels on them. It's the same for every other brand. There aren't that many SD factories in the world.

Quite correct. That is exactly what I am trying to say in this thread.
However, if you do not have leenuz box, repeat cloning may resurrect your card.
delux: Give more info, please. What OS/system you are running. I think you are on N810, right and I think you have the perfect SD that I would like to try, follow thread #1 and see whether that would take care of you. Repeat cloning would NOT damage anything about your N810, except it will replace your bootmenu with the one came with the script. And..........what do you want to say about the prog WorldTV99?

I had a Nokia Micro Sd that i wanted to put in a camera, but the camera wouldn't read it, not even formatting it. So after much Googleing around i found that little app.
Just my 2 cents if it works for anyone.

nor did all of my disk recovery tools on my macbook running tiger

The card seems completely dead.......but, this PM I tried reformatting it in the desktop PC via a USB flash card reader, and a HP flash disk reformatting utility. I managed to get the card recognized as "Drive F" after this, but properties shows it to have a size of "0 bytes". Further, when I try dragging a file onto it, I get prompted to format it, but it won't format, so nothing can get written to it.
I have no Linux PC, nor access to one.
Any further suggestions???
Thanks.............btw, WorldTV99 rocks !!!

You are a good buddy! with that kind of comment of WorldTV99....Wow!
Well. You DO NOT NEED a leenuz box.
I got one of those card too, and yes, it is a 8 G patriot miniSD. And it also crapped on me:
1) it is garantee for 1 yr from newegg. So you can always bump it back to newegg and get a replacement as a last resort.
2) stick it back to the N810, and do either clone/partition several times, till it work. Step by step guide is here, http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=22155. It replaced your bootment, so do backup your bootmenu. If you do not want to do cloning, try repeat partition, that should do it. Not once, but 3 to 4 times under, it partitioned.

I do not think SDHC or SD card will make any difference. I just want to test that a corrupted card can be, not guaranteed, resurrected by this way. ...................

Thanks for the excellent explanation how to do this !

Hi,
n810, diablo, 4 gb SD:
input/output error, cannot read sector 0
is it an option to zero the first 512 bytes (like it says...!)?
and how to do this?
Many thanks
mackaroni
