Nothing but black images. No pictures - Canon Digital Rebel / EOS-300D Digital Camera with EF-S 18-55mm Lens

you might have lower video card specs, or the version is not compatible with os

Does it look like a dim black swirling cloud with very faint images?

Check the SD card, they have sliders on them which lets you "lock" the card so nothing can be put on or taken off of it. Make sure that is off. Then go through the menu on the camera and try to format the card again. If the card is bad it should give you an error message when it tries otherwise you should be good :)
