Help! Tablet sd card damaged?
Comments

Don't accept the Hudl2 invitation to reformat your card. Instead, after the Hudl2 has started up, remove and reinsert the card. It'll probably work fine after that.
The SDHC card format that the Hudl2 officially supports is FAT32 and officially limited to 32 gigabytes. Anyone using a bigger card has to use a format that's not officially that SDHC standard but which still works fine, exFAT, that's available as a standard part of Windows from XP onwards. The catch: when you power on the Hudl2 with the card in, it falsely claims that it's corrupt and offers to reformat it to fix the non-existent problem.
The GUI Format program from Ridgecrop is one formatter that can handle formatting SD cards on Windows machines to make all space available, just that startup false error message to watch out for.0
