A few days ago my memory card stopped working. I take the pictures, but it doesn't save to memory card. When I go to review it just says no pictures to be displayed even if I just took some. I switched to my internal memory, and that works fine.
So just curious, I put the card into my computer and theres a file named BOOTEX is there, its never been there before.. I click it and it opens up in NotePad and says ::

One of your disks needs to be checked for consistency. You
may cancel the disk check, but it is strongly recommended
that you continue.

Memory cards have a finite lifespan that is far shorter than a comparable PC HDD of the same size. One of the greatest shortcomings is the shorter life in spite of a better technology. Average life is 1-2 years compared to a PC drive of 5-7 years

Some general rules when using them:

Back everything up to another location (i.e. PC, CD, DVD)
use a pencil eraser very lightly to clean the contacts
Keep them clean and dry at all times.
Try reformatting the card in the device you use it in the most.
Try reformatting in your computer.
