Re: Love-in dissent

Hi Atom, the problem with a post and it's sequence is things can go out of logical progression. Until I read the remarks about card readers I assumed everyone connected their Sigma to a computer via the provided USB cable as cited in Sigma manuals.

My original post about a corrupted CF card resolved by finding trying it again the next day showed no practical problem even though Windows suggested there was. Since several people had offered suggestions I thought I would draw the thread to a close with the happy result the card is back in use. Then card readers returned with 5 members saying they are a good idea.

They may well be but re the original post the issue is resolved. As a practical alternative re corrupted files copying to computer via a card reader may help with use of recovery software but that is for another day. From my end the thread makes perfect sense.

The question what corrupted the card and how do I stop it happening again is also for another day.
