Put some test pics on a known good card. Then with PC turned off, insert card, boot PC - is it readable or does it corrupt that card too.

If PC can still read that card, then, just to prove the case, - leave the pc turned on and remove the card and reinsert to see if it once again corrupts it. If it does, the case is proven.

Good luck mate
Thanks for your efforts in helping Paul. Yes, I tried that. My other card is fine and the card reader is fine.

I have now recovered the entire card with software and am ditching the card. I'll pick up another spare today.

Thanks for all the suggestions folks!

Baz.
