Not really all that realavent but my 2gig A-data crapped out on me and they refused the lifetime warranty becasue I did not have the origional packaging .
So I am not claiming that they are junk cards, just that keep that packaging just in case . You will be happy if it does decide to take a shit on you .

are all of the 4Gb cards being posted on here compatible with the gp2x? I'm getting a unit for my birthday and I was thinking of getting a card with my money. If not, what is the cheapest and biggest compatible card?
Thanks

got it today. Formatting right now.
While I'm formatting it says
Capacity:
955MB
File system:
FAT32
Allocation unit size:
Default allocation size
I'm hoping 955 MB isn't the max capacity of this 4GB card I just got... That better be something else. 955 was the only choice.

Try this under Windows and the SD card plugged in:
Open up Computer Management under Control Panel, Administrative Tools.
Click on the text that says Disk Management under Storage on the Left
You should see all your drives/partitions on the right now. Check out the space with the colored boxes and look at the area where your SD card drive letter is.
If there is a black box with a colored box next to it, right click the colored box and click delete partition. Then right click the black box that combined with the blue box and hit format (DO NOT FORMAT FROM MY COMPUTER).
If there is not, then can't help you...

Viking cards are hit and miss (and also very cheap) because they are surplus stock from other brands. Mine was a Toshiba 1GB, which works well for flashing. Peel off the Viking sticker to find out what YOURS is!

I also have a 4GB SD card that I can only format as 1GB.
Transcends website states that many card reader/writers cannot handle such a large capacity.
They have a utility there which is supposed to sort it, but failed for me
They also mention that there own reader will work ok, but not sure if i'll be able to format with a reader, presumably i need a reader/writer ?
Can anyone recommend a reader/writer that they've had success in formatting a 4gb card with ?

Patriot 4gb SD for $87.99 ($72.99 after mail-in rebate)I have had no problems with this card. I haven't had to flash my gp2x yet, so I don't know if it works for that. But, for 4gb of storage it's great. The card worked fine straight out of the packaging, but I formatted it as Fat32 before I used it, just to be safe.

Looks like prices for SD cards are tumbling down in the States, but prices don't appear to be dropping below £65 for a 4gb card here in Blighty.
Anybody found a cheap UK supplier of 4gb cards? - waiting for them to hit £50 before getting one...
