Why can't my computer detect my sony 512mb memory stick pro duo? I have a windows xp computer and whenever I plug it in, my computer doesn't detect it. The first ever time I plugged it in, it worked fine but now it doesn't. I've checked my computer and the computer manager and it's not there.

SOURCE: format error

Format memory stick, if no data on it.
If there is data on memory stick, copy it on PC using any good card reader.

SOURCE: Sony CX-12 Camcorder gives message when memory stick inserted

Hi!
This is a feature and not a defect of the CX-12 that reminds the user that the memory stick inserted might not be able to record the data from the camera effectively. HD video requires a memory stick with a relatively fast data read/write speed, and the CX-12 recommends not using any other stick that is not Mark 2.
Fortunately, though, as you have found out, it does not affect the camera's ability to record in non-Mark 2 sticks.
Hope this helps!

Formart the card, either from the camera, "if it offers the option, most do" or if you have a memory card reader in a desktop or laptop, that is what it sounds like to m, best of luck Gym

Hi Guy's!
Don't brick/bin it It is probably fine Your P.c. can possibly only read a Max of 2Gb so buy yourselves an external card reader that can read up to 8Gb or more and your back on the case.
There you Go FixYa'd
