    Memory stick keeps closing
    « on: December 18, 2008, 10:12:14 PM »
    Ok, here's a weird one. My 512mb memore stick keeps closing. I formatted it and Download some other stuff from my psp on it. Open the vid folder again and bam, does it again. Now my 1gb memory card has no problem and when I open up my vid folder, it doesn't happen. Also it said on the error report something about "memory card could not be "read". Also I did a cc cleaner and downloaded the virus scanner they have you download, found nothing. Last thing, if qasf.dll helps, it had that on the error report. Any help is appreciated.

    edit: vids on my pc are completely fine and nothing seems wrong or anything.

    edit2: heading to bed, if anyone has a solution or any idea on how to fix it I'll reply in the morning. Thank you in advance  :)

    Does the stick work in other computers?

      Sounds like the memory stick is failing. That does happen, more often than many people realise. They are not suitable as a backup medium for example. Until you can test it in another computer, the assumption must be that the memory stick is broken. Even if it "works" in another computer, if it does not work in yours, it is effectively broken for you. It is unreliable. It has given you a clear sign that it is time to discard it.

      qasf.dll is a file used by Windows Media Player. What error report?
