    Hi!

    I got a 8gb Sandisk SD card and a fancy reader only for it. I ran a recovery on my One, went into bios, did the whole from-DVD-to-USB-thingy on my main pc. The whole process went smooth.

    Then i wanted to delete the recovery data form the card and fill it up with music, films, etc. from my windows PC. I did it once before, and there were no problems, windows just formated the card and voila. But now Windows wont open it. Explorer.exe stops responding and i cant right-click on Removable Disk (H:).
    This happened when i put the SD card into the Storage Expansion slot.

    The question is, is there any way I can delete the recovery data from the SD card in Linpus Linux (since the card works prefectly on the One), and make it work in windows? Or is there any other way to fix this?

    You can probably install gparted to reformat the SD card. Open a terminal type in "sudo yum install gparted" to install it, the n"sudo gparted" to run it.
