Jus got a 2gb duo (sony) from ebay. Problem is, is that my pc (or k750) cant recognise it. But it does work ok in my psp. My other 1gb (sandisk) and 64mb (sony) work on in pc and phone, so i dont think my phone or pc is dodgey.

anyone have advice?

thnx.

It won't recognise when plugged into pc, if that's what you mean? As none of them do?
EDIT: If not, try formatting...

i think you need to update the drivers for your card reader.

When you put it in your PC's card reader, does it show up in administrative tools?

If you're running XP or 2000, right-click on 'My Computer', select 'Manage' from the menu and a new window will pop up. Double-click on 'Local Disk Management' and see if you can see the partition and formatting status in there. It might be that your computer can see the card but hasn't assigned a drive letter to it, which is why it doesn't show up in 'My Computer'.

If you can see it, right-click on it and select 'Change drive letters and paths'. Assign it a letter and it should show up in 'My Computer' as normal.

If it appears as 'unpartitioned' or 'unformatted' in local disk management, you can right click on it and start the partitioning wizard to partition and format it.

Oh dear

Maybe a duff card then, although it's strange how it works in the psp.
