    Hey guys, I've got a question. When I use Panasonic Formatter, I have four options:
    QUICK
    QUICK (Erase ON)
    FULL (Erase OFF)
    FULL (Erase ON)
    What are the differences and what is the best one?

    I just use the format version in vista and it works for me. Haven't bothered with those formatting programs. Just make sure it's fat32 format.

    FULL (Erase ON)

    I use this , I think it means total clean format and data can not be recoverd

    Also you have to unplug your microSD reader after the format is finished

    Are you can format you microsd card normaly, Panasonic Formatter is used more like if your card gets corrupted with data...

    Use the full format option as it will remove everything and start clean. make sure to back up files on card first. The quick format will also work, but like i said i just put in the card reader in my pc and format it with vista and it works fine.

    It's always best to speak slowly when talking to those who subscribe to "littlekillism". :)
