    Office Depot had SanDisk 4gb MicroSDHC cards on sale this week. After reading some of the post on this forum I thought it would be compatable with my new 8330.

    When I put the card in it will not recognize it and says it may need to be formatted. When I tell it to format it I get an error saying formatting failed.

    I do not have a card reader for it so I put it in my GPS and it recignized it okay.

    My BB is running 4.5.0.77 OS. Is the HC type of card not compatable?

    Any suggestions?

    This is my first BB.

    Thanks

    Yes, I have a 128mb microSD and it works fine. It is not the HC type of card.

    Yes, it is a bad card. I had bought two of them. I didn't want to open the other one until I knew it was compatable. I put the other card in and it works fine.

    Thanks for the replys.

    The only part that throws me off is that u say the 4gb works fine in your gps, so I dont see how the card itself is faulty. Try formatting the card on your computer first and see if that works. That or jus go back 2 the store and try a new card right there on the spot.

    EDIT: Guess u figured it out....bad cards suck! But @ least u had 2! LOL
