format micro sd card to fat issue

[EnTaroZeratul]

Hello,

Recently I formatted my 8GB SanDisk micro sd card to NTFS and was unable to format it back to FAT32.

After asking on here, someone managed to help me format it back. It worked. But...

I took it out of my computer to put into my phone, and it wasn't being read. So, I put it back into my computer and it said it needed to be formatted. So I tried, and got an error.

After trying the disk manager, I found that instead of saying unallocated like before, it now says:

(G: )
7.40 GB RAW
Healthy (Primary Partition)

I can't open the card on my computer or phone, can't format it and I've tried at several programs that are suppose to concert it. None have worked. Help please!

You may need to use Diskpart, or download a partitioning software like Gparted, but here are the instructions for using Diskpart.

After I typed "Clean" it gave an error.

"DiskPart has encountered an error: Data error (cyclic redundancy check). See the System Event Log for more information."

Help?

It didn't fix the issue, still giving the same error when using the 'clean' command in diskpart. Please help us in formatting the USB drive/micro sd card.
