Hi all,

Here are my system details:

- IPAQ 3850
- BIOS version 1.20
- Pocket PC version 3.0.11171
- ARM SA1110 processor
- 128MB SanDisk SD

I can't seem to get the SD card recognized. I've tried the "hard reset" as
suggested by Lawrence Wong at
http://groups.google.ca/groups?q=c [...] com&rnum=1

I've also downloaded and tried the Flash Format application.

In both cases the device indicates that there is no storage card detected.
I've confirmed that the card is good by trying it out in another device
(Siemens Pocket PC) and digital camera.

I'm at a loss and would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks, JPB

Send the card back and get a different make. Sometimes some cards just won't
work in individual devices.
