Default Lost files and capacity on SD Card??

Much to my delight, I recently got a 1GB SD card from Santa. It was on my xmas list as I wanted to copy some of my CDs to a portable format so I could listen to my music on the move. After happily ripping about 400MBs of tracks using Windows Media Player on my PC I copied them over to my PPC device through Windows Explorer by drilling through to the Mobile Device and then the Storage Card folder - which I always believed went via ActiveSync anyway. However, when I went to add the files to a playlist on my iPAQ I couldn't find them. They don't show up in the Explore of ActiveSync or in the PC version of Windows Media Player (looking at Mobile Devices) either. Even worse, I was horrified to find that when I checked the Memory of the Storage Card it identified approx 400MB of 970MB used up and only about 500MB free!! Unfortunately, I don't have an SD Card Viewer for accessing the files directly from my PC but I don't know if this would help anyway.

I have an Compaq iPAQ 3870.. has anyone else experienced anything similar and know if there is an easy to fix this? Or is this a case of sending the parcel back to Lapland??! :cry:

Thanks!
