First of all, sorry if this is in the wrong catagory.

Second, the problem I am having is that the card's bootloader appears to be corrupt as reported by CMD. Nothing is able to format it, and two partitions appear in Windows when I plug it in. It also doesn't work on any of my mobile devices, not even my camera. The card in question is a SanDisk Ultra PLUS 16GB UHS-1. I got it a year ago and it worked fine up until I bought Spotify premium on my device and downloaded songs to it. I suspect Spotify may have corrupted the bootloader of the card because during the download of my songs, it stopped being able to access it or even read it. When I select the card in Low Level HDD formatter, the firmware is 0.0.0.0. I have been unable to find firmware for it so that I could potentially flash it and fix the issue.

Any help in this regard will be extremely appreciated because I've been banging my head in the wall trying to figure it out.
 
Solution
I would ditch it and buy new one.
Usually by doing a lot of reading and writing to the SD cards in general they get quite hot if you believe me or not and traces can break.
I really dont know if you could find correct firmware at all to "burn" it to the SD.

Have you tried using bootice?
For me its neat little program that can reformat anything to anything (Literally patritioning an SD/USB).

After you run it as Admin, select (If the software can see) I will write down whole bible.

Yeah, I decided to go out and buy another one. That's all I could do, as my reader kept re-attaching the device. It only does that with the card I mentioned, not my other card. Anyways, thank you for the suggestion.
