Answer
Cause:

Corruption on card

Solution:

Please note, on XO cards larger than 32M default to FAT32, you want to change that to Fat before formatting. Also many Olympus cameras can not use cards formatted on the PC, please do not format cards being used in an Olympus camera, except in the camera.

THIS WILL DELETE ALL FILES ON THE CARD

To reformat the card:

1. Place the card in the reader

2. Right click on the drive letter for the reader

3. Choose format

4. Choose full format with no label

5. Finish the format

6. Test card. It should now be working correctly.

Note: Certain cameras may require that you also format the card in the camera.
