CF Adapter (through PCMCIA) Maximum Size on A1200 (Recommend Brand)

[CodeHunter]

Hello All,

1) What is the maximum capacity of a CF card that an A1200 (inserted through PCMCIA slot) can read?

My Escom A1200, can read a 1GB Viking CF card, but when I insert a 4GB Maxell (formatted as FAT16 on a WinXP) I get a CF0:NDOS.

2)When I try to format this CF card on my A1200, I get an: "I/O - Error #--3" message. Why?

3) Is it the card that is not compatible?

4) How can I read this 4GB CF card?

5) What brands do you recommend?

Sorry, I am confused, so what is the LARGEST capacity that I can use on PCMCIA adapter, 2GB? 4GB? 8GB?

I just got a PATRIOT 8GB, and still my A600 and A1200 can not see it thorough PCMCIA. What brand is the most compatible? Only SANDISK? What kind of SANDISK?
