cgo Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 I did something I probably shouldn't have done ... I erased the contents of my 10D formatted CF card then copied a number of jpg's to it to view on my Pocket PC 2002 PDA. I inserted the card in the PDA and immediately got prompted to Format which I didn't want to do so, I said no. I couldn't view any pics, so I returned to CF to the 10D only to get Err 02. Remove and reload the card gets the same result. The 10D manual says to format it but how do you do that if the camera won't run with the error code? Help !!!

aardvarko Posted July 2, 2003 Share Posted July 2, 2003 If you've got a cardreader, format it in FAT16/32 (not sure if the 10D supports FAT32 - it should, though) aka DOS format with a PC/Mac. Failing that, try reformatting it in your PPC. Also, a few silly things to check - any moisture or dust in the sockets on the CF or the camera/PDA?

peter_phan Posted July 2, 2003 Share Posted July 2, 2003 I'd get an inexpensive USB CF card reader, stick the CF card in it, in Windows go to My Computer, find the reader, right click on it, choose format, and it'll be done. I think it's best to format using the PC because it gives you a more comprehensive formatting of the card, meaning it erases *everything* and you end up with a fresh card.

cgo Posted July 3, 2003 Author Share Posted July 3, 2003 I can't format the card in the camera, the CF Reader and the PC. I can't do anything with the card. SanDisk are actually replacing it ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
