Have you tried formatting the card within the camera Pete ? That is, if you can do that while it is showing Err02.

Never seen this myself, so I'm not sure.

It seems clear that the CF Card has packed in ........

Anyone have the return address of Canon who sent the card?

Was it in Denmark? Sweden?

Stupid question but have you tried cleaning the contacts on the card. I know this has worked for me in the past(albeit with a different camera).

Gotta say I haven't even bothered trying the free card I got with my 300D... if I dig it out I'll give it a go and see if I have a problem or not

Mods - any chance of giving this clown his own forum? It seems that every little challenge in life he faces has him running to SN and crying for help.

Got any more questions about things you can't cope with?
I'll bet you can't even wipe your own **** without posting a question on here about it you chimp. Look how many posts you've racked up! And all of them look like an 8 year-old's typed them in. What are you today? 20 stone bouncer? Nuclear Scientist? Secret Agent? Pensioner?
What an absolute tw@t you are.

Santa hates you. He hopes you die soon, as do lots of people.

I guess it's called Scandisk for a reason.
You need to run Scandisk and do a surface scan to get rid of the bad sectors before it works?
