I had the same problem. The problem is the SD card you are using. I had to find a chap $5 SD to get it to work. I tried more than 10 different cards before I found one that works. FinalGrom is very picky for some reason. The card should be formatted as FAT32 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhataKowinkydink Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Also you need to make sure the SD is right side up (I made that mistake). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an 8GB card here that never reads on the first try, while I have a lot of smaller cards (1GB, 256MB,) and a 16GB which read just fine. I like the smaller cards because I feel I am not wasting larger cards. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tater1337 Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 I just read a couple long posts in other forums about counterfeit SD cards and such might be worthy for people to post what brand/models of SD card work and possible ones that did not 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+arcadeshopper Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 any brand that's smaller than 16g should work fine, i prefer sandisk 4g 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serafini Lapo Posted March 15, 2023 Share Posted March 15, 2023 (edited) Anche a me lo stesso problema, alla fine ero arrivato a 3 schede (2 da 16 gb e 1 da 32gb non funzionanti) poi mi è venuta un'idea. Mio figlio è un "Nintendo fan" quindi sono andato a vedere che SD c'era dentro la Wii 1°modello.. 2GB! Ho messo tutti i dati della Wii su quella da 32gb e ho formattato quella da 2GB. Funziona benissimo. Quindi se avete delle console di questo tipo, il consiglio è di utilizzare le SD messe in passato e utilizzare quelle per la finalgrom! Ps neanche a volerlo la marca della mia è "Sandisk".😆 Edited March 15, 2023 by Serafini Lapo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense that smaller SD cards would play more nicely. Nice catch. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
