Trouble Wiping an SD Card
I have no idea what category this would fall under on this forum, but I'll try this one first.
I have an 8GB SD memory card that has over 8,000 pictures on it and am trying to wipe it. The first time I wiped it and ejected it from my laptop, I ASSUMED it was wiped. To my surprise after trying to use it again, it didn't wipe. I plugged it back into my laptop and it said the same thing it did the first time around - 253MB free of 8GB. I have tried reformatting the card and Windows gives me some kind of weird message saying its unable to reformat it. I have right-clicked all the pics and looked at their properties/attributes and the Archive checkbox was checked. I unchecked it, deleted all the pics once again and ejected the card. This time, I plugged it back into my laptop and it didn't wipe.
What's going on with this SD Card??? Anyone know of a solution?
