If the new memory card is an SD card, you should be able to use up to 2GB. MMC can support up to 1GB. You can check this link.

I would suggest trying another card if that happens to be an SD card.
Hope this helps. Pls dont forget to accept the best solution. Thanks!
open up the cameras memory card door and clean the contacts with a electrical contact cleaner available at any auto parts store and spray couble of shots and let it dry. Seems the memory cards contact points get dirty after so much use and need to be cleaned. This would probably work on any kind of camera that uses memory cards and has the same problem.
This camera Supports Memory:
SD - Secure Digital standard card supports capacities up to 2 GB.
SD - HC Secure Digital High Capacity currently supports capacities up to 32 GB.
MMC - MultiMedia Card supports capacities up to 1 GB.
Just format the memory card in the camera.
Here is a link for more support...

Sir the solution is simple the file size limitation on that paticular model is 1gb. No matter what you do you will only be able to format and use a 1gb memory card. This should help!
There are few different models of this camera check to see if the camera supports 2GB, if it does put the card in the camera and get the camera to format the card if it gives you that option
hope this helps
regards
some of these camera's support anything up to 4GB, i'd try a 1GB myself
