This is one of Kodak's first Cameras. I guess My parents bought it around 94 or 95. They started using digital cameras about a year ago when they got their mac, and they bought new cameras too. Well anyway. I've been using the same fat card the whole time. Yesterday mY COMputer said I must reformat it. I did. Now my camera says I must reformat it, and my computer will not do it. Do I have to buy a new card. If so, Why? I've been very gentle with it for 12 years. It should keep working right? Did a virus get it?

has your camera got a function to format the card ?
have you tried formatting the card in a friends pc ?
if the pc wont format the card it might just be time to buy another one, memory cards are real cheap these days, if you do buy another one, make sure the camera supports it if you get a bigger one
i hope this helps

Compact Flash Memory has a limited life based on the number of files written/erased.
