Troubleshooting
If you have a Media Card
reader/writer, you may have
problems reading the Flash Memory
Card (Creative SmartMedia)
Cause
❑ NOMAD IIc only supports SSFDC (Solid
State Floppy Disc Card) format (FAT12).
❑ Windows 98 detects the Media Card
reader/writer as an external removable
drive in Windows Explorer. Thus, you can
only format the Flash Memory Card
(Creative SmartMedia) into FAT16 format
and NOMAD IIc is unable to recognize
the FAT16 format.
Solution
❑ To format the Flash Memory Card
(Creative SmartMedia), you need to obtain
a software utility from the Media Card
reader/writer vendor that supports SSFDC
format (FAT12).
