I have a 2gb sd , that i was just using as a storedevice on my pc,
i needed it for the camera and so i put it in and formatted it.

It formatted it as FAT with a 996mb partition and left the rest unallocated
I'm mow having a problem in vista reallocating that space even if i format the card as f32 ntfs or whatever it always leaves the extra 996 unallocated.

I dont have the option in disc management to just delete the partition
anyone got any ideas or know of a good partition manager?

Edit : nevermind i booted from an xp cd and deleted an recreated the partition from there
