Okay.

So tonight I had my Kingston 2GB miniSD connected to my computer via card reader. All was well. Then I unplugged it, took out my card, put my card into my DS, and my DS doesn't recognize it. What. So I take it out, put it back into the card reader, put it into the same USB port (I HAVE tried other ones... So that's totally ruled out), Windows recognizes that a device is plugged in that USB port, but it cannot read anything. When I try clicking on the drive a message pops up saying 'J:/ is not accessible. The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error'. When I try right clicking on it to try to scan for errors, or maybe even format... explorer freezes.

Help? I'd really like to at least salvage the files on it... I haven't backed it up in awhile... v__v

Thanks in advance...

Did you "safely remove" your memory card before unplugging it?
