viamichelin x960 no sd card

this is my first post so i hope it is in the right place.
i have just found my old x960 and i think i formatted the sd card and used it for a digital camera,
is there any image or files that i need to install again on the card or will i have to just throw it away?

thank guys for any help with this.

Have a read of catsmokeys tutorial here.

tried that and still get the screen suggesting to insert an sd card??

What card are you using?

When you followed the instructions, you should ask yourself:
is the sd card damaged?
is the sd card empty?
is the device cardreader working?
what else could be wrong?

sd card is fine
it works in my garmin and pc and camera......
not empty as i put the installsd folder and contents from above link.
is it possible to check the reader?
its a sandisk card 1gb, not sdhc

1GB is enough, when you don't put to many maps on it.
Check the reader by using another sdcard.
One more thing, what is the message? "cannot find sd card" "insert sd" 'cannot find program" ... ??

Confirm that the path to the executable on the card is...

\InstallSD\InstallSD.exe

Case is important sometimes.

Also Catsmokey said he had left the original folders (empty) on the card, May be worth creating them.

i will try that to see what happens.

also i have no map installed but that shouldn't make a difference, would it?

Can the device be connected to the PC?
Can the storage card be browsed?
