Help!!! I just purchased memory stick pro duo Sony 1GB MSX-M1GN
and put it in the K750. First it takes a long time to read it, and when taking a picture it saves it, but I can't view it. It doesn't shows a thumbnail but a logo of a picture. when i open it it shows black screen with icons in vertical mode. when clicked horisontal mode, the screen is white (
If I remove the card and put it again, the picture is gone. Like someone formatted it. When going in memory status it sais free memory 2GB ?!?!?!?

Please help. I bought the card on e-bay so i can't return it on time (I'm in Macedonia). I'm using R1N035 and had no problems untill now.

PS. the new pro duo doesn't fits in the original memory stick adapter that came with the phone

Sorry to say it mate, but I believe you have a fake card. I guess its too big for the adaptor yeah?

My hint to everyone is stick away from "High Speed" Sony memory sticks, they always seem to be the ones that are prduced by fraudsters.

I think that from this picture you can realy tell the difference between fake and original card.



The blue one is the original

Thats unlucky

Dont know how much the ebay version cost you but I just bought 2 of these cards from Amazon for £20 each and they work fine. My advice would be to stick to a reputable seller for these sorts of things.

Nope. Now I have R1CA021 and still it doesn't work. Tried the card in the PC with a card reader. It keeps saing that the disk is not formatted. After formatting it, it doesn't recognize it untill I remove the card. After that same story. Apparently the card is false and bad. Anyone has any suggestons what I can do with it?

Mine is 512 MB Sandisk-the genuine one. Have thrown away my fake Sony. There're too many fakes Sony MSPD around lately, but not SanDisk. Even it fits the adapter perfectly. 5 year warranty. Just buy SanDisk,mate!
