Hi, I have a 8GB Lexar MS Pro Duo Card. It was working fine before but now whem i put the card in to my laptops card reader it's showing on my computer but can't open it. It says no media. Same when i put it into my digital camera. How can i fix it? Thanks

The DSC-H2 works with Memory Stick Duos, not with Memory Stick PRO Duos.

Hi,

As your memory card is physcially broken you dont have any way to retreive he content of the memory card.Sorry

Thanx

You need a new memory card reader. The reader isn't supporting the higher capacity of the new Memory stick. For a workaround, hook the camera directly into the computer via USB cable - then the camera itself becomes the reader and can transfer all of the pictures. Look for a reader that specifically does Memory Stick PRO Duo sticks, the PRO means the higher capacity.

I have the same problem, but when I remove the MS Pro Duo card (1GB) from the camera it works fine again. The memory card works fine in a pc memory card reader. Is there a problem with the Sony camera built-in card reader?

To make things easier, you should buy a card reader. There are different types.

MS Pro Card Reader - Is ONLY for the sony memory cards

Multi Card Reader - Will read sD, xD, Ms Pro Duo, Ms Pro, Compact Flash, Smart Media, etc.

Sony has a new memory stick out called the memory stick pro duo. Your P73 does not take this. The P73 takes the Memory Stick Pro. Which is a longer stick. You can go out to best buy or ritz camera and buy a card reader (Memory Stick Pro) and stick your memory card into the card reader and stick that into your USB port on your computer. Since it is USB, this will require NO SOFTWARE.

Your camera came out in 2004. Vista did not come out until early 2007. A lot of software does not work with vista.

Try updating you drivers for your digital media reader. Also check your dcos to see if the DMR will read a 2GB card

Most laptops that have a memory card reader will only read these types of cards, without needing an adaptor: -SD card -MMC card -Sony Memory Stick or Memory Stick Pro cards -XD cards
However, you have a MS Pro Duo card, although it fits into the card reader slot, the card is a lot thinner than what's expected, so the laptop won't be able to read it.
You need to put the Pro Duo card into the stanard size MS Pro caard adaptor. See attached image.
Hope this helps.

Formart the card, either from the camera, "if it offers the option, most do" or if you have a memory card reader in a desktop or laptop, that is what it sounds like to m, best of luck Gym

Hi Guy's!
Don't brick/bin it It is probably fine Your P.c. can possibly only read a Max of 2Gb so buy yourselves an external card reader that can read up to 8Gb or more and your back on the case.
There you Go FixYa'd
