Go to menu/exe and under preview make sure its not in manual. There are three preview modes, none, auto, and manual. None just records the image, auto shows image about 2 sec. then stores, and manual shows the image preview and you have to manually tell it to store the image (menu/exe button) or not 2nd func button (garbage can) or cancel or 1/2 press shutter release.
Lots of questions to be asked.
Have you formatted the drive using your PC. The drive should only be formatted in your camera. The camera writes files to the drive which your PC can't.
Has the drive been subjected to any physical shock of any sort?
Could your drive have been subject to static electricity. They are extremely fragile and should only be carried in the container they came in when not in your PC or Camera.
Has your drive been subjected to extreme heat?
Has your drive been in contact with a magnetic field?
Does the drive have a the record inhibit sticker attached?
Is there a chance the drive was disconnected whilst uploading to your PC?
Is there a chance the drive was removed from the camera whilst it was saving a picture
Is the media cover fully closed on the camera?
Some of these could damage your drive for good. But I would recommend a full format in the camera before getting the drive checked by a qualifies tech. Then again, we haven't mentioned a possible fault in the camera.
I think this just about covers any user type checks. If they all seem OK then it's definitely a service agent visit.
Good luck with the checks
