How do you format a digital camera memory card with the computer?
Recently purchased a Digital Camera and Dane-Elec 256mb memory card. After installing the memory card, I get a "Memory card is full" message. When I try to format the card with the camera, I get a "FILE SYS ERROR " message. I have read somewhere that you can attempt to format the card through your computer. However, I don't know how to do this. .........

If your computer has a slot for the memory card, just put it in & your removable drive should be visible when you double click my computer. Then just right click on your memory stick drive then click format.
If you dont have a memory stick slot, you need a read/write drive to shove your memory stick into & it is the same procedure as above. Hope this helps!
