Jus wondering if anyone had the 64mg card by Datel? If you have, is it reliable? coz when the worst comes to the worst i would rather have 1 big card then 5 or 6 littluns. Cheers.. ;jc

talking about going cold, one day i had my windows wide open and it was frezzing, didnt close them, no idea why. Anyway after a few minutes my GC crashed about 5 times in 15 mins. I felt the console and it was cold so i closed windows waited a minute and it was working fine... so maybe cold have got something to do with it.
being cold shrinks some things, a good few cms, so maybe it effects the electronic things too.

I'd got for

e. Exchange a faulty product for a new one of the same thing.

There have been reports of people with this problem on ALL GC memory cards (yes, even the official ones). If I remember correctly, one site determined it was something to do with them being too cold(?).

I'm sceptical about their 'findings' which would be bizzare if true but, more to the point, it's not a problem unique to a particular brand.

d. E-mail Datel's support address and tell them where to stick it (but for some strange reason i think i may not get a reply, WHICH I DONT WANT)

Yeah im sure too it said uncompressed. Anyway i got it and although it hasnt erased any game data 1/2 of the time cube doesn't recognise that theres a card in 'slot A' so i have to take it out and put it in again until it works, usually not very long but i should have to do that... its also very light for a 64mb card. hmmmmmm... strange... i think Interact also do a 64mb card and a magazine review (either nom or ngc carn't treally remember) give it 10/10. So what do i do? Send it back? Keep it. I have all my data backed up on a seperate 4mb card though so if the worse happens..... ;)jc
