Computer will not recognize my mini SD Card

I just purchased a 512MB miniSD card for my LGvx8100 phone. I intend to use it for picture storage and MP3 songs. I turned my phone off, inserted the card, turned on the phone, left it on for several hours, turned the phone off, took the card out, and inserted it into a pqi usb card reader, then inserted it into my computer. When I go to my computer and tried opening the usb device, my computer keeps telling me to insert a card into the usb portable device. The card is already in the usb card reader.

It is my understanding that I am to follow the procedure that I listed above, and that would add folders to the miniSD card. Does anyone have an idea of what my problem is?

It sounds like you did not format your card prior to plugging it into your usb reader on your PC. To format your card, you've got to put it in your phone and format it by going here:

Menu
Settings & Tools >
4. System >
4. Manage Memory >
3. Card Memory

once you're in the subfolder 'Card Memory', click on 'options' (right soft key) and choose the only option available - 1. Format Card

Remember that if you have any data on your miniSD card, it will be erased at this point. I think the point is moot, however, if you havent' been able to work your card. Good luck and I hope this helps.
