Hi,

I have recently purchased the above. The e740 asked me if I wanted to Format it. I said yes. I then transferred a PDF document to it & succesfully opened it. On turning the e740 off & on again it again asks me if I want to Format the card again & the PDF document is no longer there. This has happened a few times now. I downloaded 'Flash Format' & used it to Format the disk Fat32 to see if that made any difference & the same thing happened again after turning it off & on. 'Flash Format' said I had no disk installed. Is media very reliable? It does not seem so to me... :(

Can someone advise me on what is going wrong?

Thanks

Do you have a laptop or a desktop with a CF slot that you can try and test it with? That's always the preferred first step.
