My camera (Canon EOS350D) can read the memory card but my PC won't read the card by either the USB cable or via a card reader. I have also tried the memory card either directly or via the card reader on the photo machines in Jessops and Boots. I get either "card is damaged or corrupted" or "insert disc" messages.
Various image recall software only seems to work if the card can be read in the first place.
I wouldn't be too worried but there is one picture my wife took of our son which looks, from the camera vewing screen, too good to not make an effort to save.
Thanks for the reply putasolutions. Unfortunately no luck. I am a bit suspicious because although it would appear to be a SanDisk product once you get further into the download it appears to not be from SanDisk at all, and the SanDisk website does not have that product either. However I still downloaded but to no avail.
As a matter of interest, where did you buy your Sandisk card? If it was eBay they reckon 95% of the Sandisk cards on eBay are counterfeit. Have a look at this.

Well, if forty-eight million, two hundred thousand, seven hundred and one people died I'd be Queen.
The card is a Jessops own brand. I was only borrowing a mate's camera ahead of buying my own. I have now bought a Sony Alpha 350 and what I can't understand is how the images from the card can be viewed on both camera's monitors but not on a PC either by card reader or USB or any of the machines in the camera shops.
There is a distinct possibilty that the card was formatted on your mates camera, and there can be issues on how some cameras handle the formatting, and how windows handle formatting not done by windows.
Apparently some cards should be formatted in camera if you are to get the best write performance out of the camera
