thought id post this in the games section as its kinda related.

my friends digital camera flash card kinda died when she tried printing pics at camera house with one of those kiosk thingys. camera is a kodak v530. disk is a sandisk 1gig SD. when we try to turn the camera on it says we need to format so we did but straight after it asks it again. the pc doesnt recognise the camera as a removable storage drive. ive also bought a card reader and it works fine untill i plug that particular card. the pc doesnt recognise it after that. all i need is for it to be bootable and recognised as a drive by the pc so i can use a recovery program to get some pics back for her.

any suggestions tech heads??

cheers.

if you don't want the data on it really badly then just chuck it in the bin. data recovery costs around $80 and is not guarenteed to work. if it doesn't work they wont refund you, but they will give you a credit for next time.

I've had a 1gb card fail and I didn't give a crap about the card but I wanted the pics that were on it (I hadn't downloaded them when it failed). A new sandisk 1gb card is well under $50 so I would just buy a new one. :D

plug the card in the card reader then go to control panel/administrative tools/computer management/storage/removable storage you should be able to see your card then go options and fiddle around what ever you want to do format, partition e.t.c i hope it helps

problem is when i plug the card in the reader its kinda corrupts it and makes it unrecognised. all the other cards work fine.

gave it a good crack but have given up. tried everything under the sun. i deem the card to be officially dead. pitty cause she doesnt even have a comp to dl the pics let alone know how to use one so they were all on her card. ah wells. time to cut losses and move on.

thanks guys.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
