So i just bought a compact flash card for my navigation system...Problem is i didn't quite think through the whole process of dropping it in...(didn't realize how deep it was). So long story short its sitting in there. My questions are:

1. Can somebody link me to where i can either buy a compact flash card w/ the adapters for it, or just the adapters?
2. HOW THE HELL DO I PULL IT OUT?!

~Can anybody post a screen shot of the interface once you do enter in the pc card?

try the computing forum under general discussion

 

1. Heres a card reader http://www.compusa.com/product...eader
I have a very similar card reader with a 4 gig SD card and i love it! SOooooooooo much better than the ipod crap (which i had for months before ipod broke)

2. To insert PC card-
Step 1 - Push open on navi unit
Step 2 - Insert card gently ( if you cram it in and bend pins, ur fuckered)
Step 3 - Push close on navi unit
Step 4 - Wait for unit to read card and enjoy music!

 

Use a tweezer to get it out.

 

definitely tried the tweezers......i recommend not dropping anything in there cause it was a total bitch to get it out...had to have a friends dad get it out and he used a screwdriver and a really skinny metal thing and it came out really easy.

 

FBPSidan, have you had any problems using a 4GB SD card?

I bought an adapter for Compact Flash cards at Best Buy for $12, but it only works with my 2GB cards, not my 8GB... I need to try a 4GB.

 

I havent had a single problem with the 4gb card, just problems with file type freezin up the unit. Just takes a little time to read all the info on the card at startup.

 

what card reader do you have? can you give me the name and model?

Mine is the compusa brand 5 in 1 card reader. I paid like 30 bucks for it.

 

also for your sd card is it a SDHC or a regular SD.. i was reading online and it say that the SD is for 2gb or less and SDHC is for 2gb to 32gb...

does it mater if its sdhc or sd?
