I haven't touched my Supercard SD in a long while, in the process I started using my SD card for other things. I was wondering what the format process was again, I forgot...

You can only format it to FAT (FAT 16) if you want it to work.

in device manager choose your removable storage under DISK DRIVES then right click and choose PROPERTIES/POLICIES and change the setting to OPTIMISE FOR PERFORMANCE then apply and THEN you should be able to choose to format it NTFS  :P :)
