yes, fat is the micrsoft file system so there is no reason why you can not see the device under a windows based pc.

the only options available to you now are:
1 your card reader is problimatic
2 the adapter is problimatic (if your using one for this card)
3 the card is faulty.

you could try inserting it again and re-format, make sure the adapter is not locked (read only)

@Zad Thanks for your help m8 but i think it must be the card itself have tried 2 different card readers plus 2 diff,card adaptors on 2 diff computers and it still says cannot open removable disc f i/o error.
but have tried with my old 64mb memory card and that works fine.

thanks paddyboy.
