Ridata CF incompatible?

Has anybody used the Ridata 2 GB 80x Pro-2 CF card?  Every game I try on it gives me white screens.  I couldn't find any mention of anyone using this card at all, only the 150x.  I've tried formatting FAT16 multiple times.  This card works perfectly fine in my camera.  Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Steve

Anybody?  I'm afraid to buy any more Ridata cards in any format if I'm going to have a weird incompatibility like this.

Are you formatting the card with your camera? Or on your pc?

strells

I did it with my camera, which has always worked for other cards.  I was going to try again with a PC tonight.

Be sure to do a full format and not a quick format. Good luck  :)

Well, I tried it and it still doesn't work.  Really weird.  Is it possible for a card to be simply incompatible with SC even though it works fine with the file system?

Does SC CF not support 2 GB?

All Supercard versions support 2GB including CF.  Try a different speed/brand CF card.

Obviously that's what I have to do.  It's just unfortunate that I spent the money on a 2 GB that doesn't work with anything except my camera.

Can you return it and say it doesn't work with your camera?  You could ebay it too.
