Sd Card Help.

[danny404]

Hey all, this might be a stupid question but I bought a GP2X months ago, but havn't played it in ages so I deceided to delete all the files on my memory card and start again.
Only thing is, when I connected the 1GB card up to my PC using my card reader and tried to delete everything, it says that the files are write protected and I have to remove it to delete them. I was able to delete them by inserting the card back into the GP2X and deleting them from Explorer, but am still unable to get any new files, make new folders etc. and wondering is it somthing I'm doing or is my SD card just messsed up?
Any help appreciated, proably just a stupid mistake on my part :rolleyes:

Format, using the GP2X explorer to delete doesn't work right

Quick reply I hate to ask, but how do I format the card?

Err.. make sure you use a card reader:

My Computer, right click the drive that pops up when you connect the SD, format, and use FAT32 instead of FAT

Lol.......sorta embarresing here, tried to format but kept saying that it had write protection. So I took the card out to see was it ok, turned out it has a little button on the side that was turned on and it locked the system.

Turned it off, everythings fine now Thanks for the help anyway though
