Hi,
I've been having this problem lately. When I turn on my camera (olympus C-750 UZ) it would show "power off" or "format". Not all the time. I can sometimes make it work again by taking out the card and putting it back in. Sometimes while shooting the camera would hang while saving the picture. I don't suspect it's a corrupt XD card because it's new and would work fine before the occasional error and then work fine again. Sometimes when it asks to be formatted and when I do, the photos are still there on the card. Really need your help on this one. THanks

Try cleaning the contacts on the camera where you insert the memory card. Clean the contacts on your memory card as well.

Any file stored in the card will be erased once you format the card.
