Re: [NTLK] Un-deletable Package Lockup

First you can contact me or Sonny Hung off list for a good price on
an 8 meg flash card.
If you insert the problematic card with the stylus pressed a 1/4 inch
from the left center edge in portrait a dialog window will open
asking if you want to activate the packages on the card.
Say no.
Now all packages will be frozen.
Move essential files to internal or to the other card.
erase the card.
Move essential files back
Don't forget storage soups. Especially Names and Dates.
