My PC has 1 GB RAM. A 128MB Smart Media memory card suddenly won't work
in the camera. WINXP PRO SP2 testing that card in drive I: says that
card is OK. I can store and view images on the card from images on the
D: hdd. But the camera aborts using this card. Camera works fine with
other memory cards

Tried to test memory card in I: with MEM86. MEM86 insists on testing
all 1GB of RAM in my PC before testing the camera memory card in drive
I:. Can MEM86 be configured to just test one specific memory device in a
specific HDD? What other memory diagnostic software will help me test my
possibly bad memory card?
Thank you, Dave_s

"aborts in the camera"?? Did you try to format the card in the camera?

Yes, no success, camera aborts while trying to "format".
When the 128MB card is used, the camera only
displays the "Format Yes/NO" option. When I say "yes" then I see
"CARD ERROR". I'm trapped in that loop with that card but other cards
work OK.
XP PRO SP2 testing says card is perfect, but I do not trust those test
results. What software allows me to test just the 128MB card in drive I:?
