I have an ipaq hx2790b and have recently bought a Compact Flash card?

the compact flash card is 2gb and when inserted in the ipaq it isn't recognised. In the storage memory tab it says storage memory not installed.Is the hx2790b compatible with a 2gb compact flash card? If so then what is the problem?

The specifications document only states that the iPaq hx2790 is compatible with CF Type II cards. It does not mention capacity limits. I would assume that there are none none.





If that's the case then the problem may be with the CF card itself. Here are some things to consider:


- Is it a new card? Has it been formatted?


- Are you certain that its properly seated in the slot?


- Check that the pins on the iPaq are not damaged.


- Check that ports on the card are not obstructed.


- Verify that the CF card works by installing on a PC with a compatible port.





Good luck.
