What do you mean you can't access it? Can't see any files on it?

I can see the folders ie DCIM-Nikon 001, 002, 003 etc but they won't open, just goes through the motions of opening then tells me 'Please Insert Disc'

Have you tried safely removing hardware then trying again?

Might be worth trying a free utility called 'Unlocker'

Good, news, linux to the rescue, got everything off apart from the latest folder. Reformatted and will now try it again in camera as the last time I stuck it in it said 'You can't use this card'

Ta for the idea Si, would have taken me till at least tomorrow to think of that

Why would you use a crapped up card again?
