Little help: media card error? use utility

[jamestown0101]

So, i got my hands on a bb Pearl due to my last bb crashing on. Any way, I am now having trouble with the media card. I get prompts that there is a "media card error: check it on a desk top utility tool?" When I attempt to use the BB sync, it wont pick up that there is a BB plugged in. I am wondering if it is that, the BB is too old a model for the sync or if it is the media card not being picked up. If you could shed a little light on this guy, it would be appreciated. I am trying to get back all my contacts, bbm contacts, pics, music, etc and its been a real **** up. Thanks lads.

Every time I reboot my device I get this message " A media card has been inserted that contains errors. Do you wish to repair the media card now. I choose yes and then another message pops up that reads ''If lost clusters are found during the repair, do you want to save them?" I choose yes again. I get "Repairing card... please wait" and then "Media card repair failed". Any suggestions on how to fix this? Connecting my media card to the laptop (using a USB card reader) did not help either; I couldn't view any files as they were all random unknown files that were 'fragmented'. Any other way I can get my pictures/videos back?
