check inside your mpc to make sure none of the pins are bent.

no, no pins bent, the problem occurs with removal only. the akia card removes easily when i press the button it damn near shoots out. but with my lexar cards that i use with digi cam as well, . . they don't eject as readily and require a little more than a tug. . .

You may want to avoid using the lexar cards. Also check in the sticky topic for further cf card recommendations.

hmm strange, i guess you could try a different make.

@sparq maybe another sticky for CF cards is required?

The title of the thread had changed after Penfold left the forums. That's why you didn't notice it right away.

But anyway, all the CF card and ram info is there for whoever needs it.

cool cheers.

does anyone know where penfold went? are the rumours that Dangermouse is coming back to british television true?

i dunno man, i miss penfold and would say that the forums have indeed declined since his diaspora
