Well the way the story goes is that, I wanted to transfer files from PC to PPC. Inserted the SD card into my PC, option to format appeard, did the format. Now the card is not recognized by the PPC. What do I do?

I think I just need to format it for PPC use. Is that right? If so, how do I do that.

Also, how do I do a hard reset? Is that just taking the battery out and putting it in?

What about a soft reset?

as you can tell I just got the phone.

Recap: The SD card worked on the PPC to begin with. But it didnt work on the computer. So I just formatted it on the computer, thinking it'll be okay. But NO. After that it worked on the computer but not on the PPC.

Well after searching all over the net. Many people suggested Soft Reset, Hard Reset. None of those options worked for me. Then there was a post where someone tried updating their computer's memory card reader drivers. After they did that, they had good results.

So taking the advise above, I found new drivers for my reader on my computer, reformatted the card, and popped it back into the PPC. And walla!! it worked...

thanks to forums like this out there, my frustration was over in one day...

now I get full 2GB usage on both PC and the PPC.

FYI:
Hard Reset: Hold the key next to the win key down and hold the key next to the "ok" button down. While doing that, take your stylus and place it in the reset hole. Refer to your manual if you dont know where that is.
