Micro disk problem...can anyone help?

Have had my 8300 for 2 weeks and have purchased an SanDisk 1gig microSD card and am having problems.

When I place it in my laptop card reader, I get 3 monotone beeps from the computer and it will not show up anywhere. When I take it out of the computer, it gives you the normal removal beep.

The phone recognizes the card and has been formated.

I am dieing to get some music on the phone...can anyone help me here?

PS The card was bought from a reputable business.

I don't know if this will help but I'll throw it out there. I was experiencing EXACTLY the same problem with the ScanDisk 512 card.

Completely by accident I discovered that as I pushed in the adapter/card so that it would be released (I have a push it in to pop it out type reader in my computer) it read the card. In other words pushing the card in fully and holding it there - not letting it pop back out - made connections the normal seating didn't. It's a pain in the butt. But I also have a slide in/pull out reader that doesn't have any problems with the card.

Just a thought. And I'll take this opportunity to suggest you check out some stereo Bluetooth headsets - I'm listening to mine right now and it really makes the MP3 player...

Thanks, Prestige.

I went back to my laptop to try and now I can't even get a beep out of it!!!

I guess I will head out and bu a USB card reader and see what happens.

Man...it is always something!!!
