First check that the mirco SD card is completely inserted into the SD card adapter, and in the correct orientation, I had one that of some reason allowed the micro SD card to be inserted backwards.

I think I still have some below 1 gig SD cards, so if you do not find another solution, let me know (send PM), and I can lend you a card or 2 I just need to make sure they are blank. I do not put contact info on open forums.
