Memory Card problems

[nelly111s]

Whilst in use a (genuine) Sandsik Extreme III 2GB SD card has "locked up". Won't read in a card reader on the PC, won't format in the camera (D80), so I can't use recovery software. Any ideas as to how I can get it recognised by the PC?

Thanks

Sandisk sells through a number of distributors in the UK who have the technical backup to sort out problems like this. Which retailer/e-tailer did you buy it from ? I'd suggest talking to them first, they probably won't be able to help but should at least be able to tell you who their distributor is, you should then be able to call the technical support department at the distributor for further help.

Just looked on the Sandisc website and there is a "self help" section that seems to have alot of questions similar to yours...maybe worth a read.

Either Amazon or 7DayShop, not sure which. I've tried the website, but no obvious answers on there. I'll send an email to Support & see what they say.
