sansa clip zip 64GB memory cards

<< < (2/2)

40apple40:
here's an update for my question in case it helps others.

i got my 4GB sansa clip zip to work with a samsung 64GB SDXC micro SD card - yay!

i paid £50 for the samsung card (mymemory.com) rather than buy the cheaper (£41) sandisk card as i read about some having probles with the reliability of the sandisk one.

i first tried formatting using the H2format program & the command prompt but it wouldn't work for me for some reason (being in German didn't help me find out why).

so i formatted my card on my W7 laptop using Mini tool partition magic home edition. (google it & u can download it for free)
my card had an extra 100mB partition for some reason. I deleted both partitions & then created a single new one.
i formatted to FAT32 making the partition a primary one, not active ("none" was left in the status column).

it worked!!

many thanks for all the replies & to all the rockbox developers for a great alternative to the crap firmwares we get given as standard on these devices.
