Anyone else had problems with their free Scandisk Free CF card?
 

From Canon??

My 300D is now showing err 02!!

Its clearly the CF Card as my other Jessops card works fine

Can anyone remember what we had to do if the CF Card was faulty .... I can't find the info!?

Pete

ps. Andrewdicklard - no need for you to reply to this (you will read it cos you're a saddo .... but I challenge you NOT to post!!) :D

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.

Its all immobilised while its showing err02! :(

What a bummer!

Pete

Pete,

Check your manual. Also some info here.

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?

Pete

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).

It was "free" Pete...

try formatting in a card reader??

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 :)

Errrrrr, yes, and??

I miss your point? Its free so it shouldn't work?? :confused:

Pete

WhoooooooHoooooo!!

Just stuck in in another camera and formatted it in that, popped it back into the 300D and formatted again - sorted!! :D

It must be Xmas!! ;)

Pete

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.

And a Merry Xmas to you too!!

*cough* TO55ER!! *cough*

Pete

I thought you were going to bed you cretin?

Yes, I know ...... weasels like YOU wait until you can post without risk - you big girls blouse, popping insults from your keyboard hiding behind your screen.

Pathetic is the name we give your type - but the TO55ER above came pretty close didn't it??

I hope Santa pi55es in your sack you arse :D

Got any more questions about things you can't cope with?
I'll bet you can't even wipe your own arse 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?
