#SD CARD FORMATTER FORMATTING FAILED HOW TO#

That is on a computing forum though so I guess they always want the latest and 'greatest'. I'm used to the moment i type Win 7 people online come at me with their pitch forks. I've contacted Viofo support as I think I have a faulty camera but in the meantime I wondered if I was doing something wrong that you guys could point me in the right direction.

#SD CARD FORMATTER FORMATTING FAILED HOW TO#

I've seen YouTube videos on how to do it but it won't allow my camera to do that. The PC recognised the camera yet it doesn't show as file manager mode - so there's no way of accessing it to update firmware.

I tried connecting the dash cam to the PC to update firmware. These cards work perfectly fine in my Mio Mivue and have been forever. I tried again with a 32gb and the exact same thing happened again, although when formatting in the PC it was fat32. I format using the PC - exfat, put back in the camera but the exact same happened. All the files are still there, old files and the files I just recorded before selecting format.

I put card in to pc to find its not been formatted at all.

Every time I pressed record it would then say format the card, even though it had recorded before I selected format within the dash cam. I went to format the 128gb card and then the screen kept saying format micro sd card and it refused to record. I put a sd card in and it recorded immediately. I received my v3 yesterday and started to try it out.
