SD card - different results on two pcs
Posted: 01 Mar 2013, 11:27
I wonder if you could point me to a possible cause of this symptom.
Reading an SD card (formatted by Swann camera) on two separate computers via a USB card reader -
Computer 1 - XP Home - Windows lists files but refuses to copy - "parameter incorrect" - will not open files (avi or jpg) - PhotoRec and TestDisc report "Invalid FAT boot sector" - "Bad Ending Cylinder - CHS and LBS don't match" - No files recovered at all (not even those Windows lists)
Computer 2 - XP Professional - Windows lists, copies and displays correctly - PhotoRec and TestDisc work fine - FAT16 - recovers current and some previously deleted files .
Does this point to a problem with the USB ports on Computer 1?
Thanks..
