SD Card help!!!!!!!

Got a 512mb sd card for my camera but it will not let me reformat it when i put it in the camera. When i put it in my card reader on the computer it detects it but will not let me do anything else.

I have had it a while and it used to work fine. Any suggestions to get it to work again.

I have another card for the camera and it works fine so it must be the card.

How can i reformat it????????????

Thanks

    I'm not familiar with this card, but does it not have a "write protection" toggle on it. Have a check to see if you've locked the card inadvertantly.
