1GB FAT microSD problem

I'm thinking at this point that it's more of a problem with the microSD than the supercard, but maybe someone here knows what to do..

If I format my microSD to FAT32, it's capable of filling to full capacity of 1GB. For some strange reason no matter how many times I format it, on FAT it only goes to about 375 or so MB before giving me a "Cannot copy example.gba: The Directory or file cannot be created." error. Does anyone know why, or how to fix this?

Otherwise the warranty will cover it, but I'd rather not have to deal with that.

Thanks.

On FAT16 you can't have more than 512 entries in the root directory. If you have a lot of files copy them into a folder.

Oh. Figures it'd be that simple, huh.

Thanks a lot!
