Hacking R4i Deluxe: Format microSD card each time?

[Bonovox40]

So basically, my Win 7 PC wants to format the microSD card after each disc imager file is written to the microSD card. Is this normal? Prior to writing a file to it for my R4i deluxe, it sees the card just fine. After writing to the card, if I eject and then pop it back in, it says I must format it before use.

Is that normal that this is happening? Thanks for any info!

Click the little icon in the try and use "safely remove [drive letter]" before ejecting the card, and see if that helps.

I know that's not a given for everyone, but yes, I did that each time already.

Googling shows this to be a fairly common problem with win7 and media in general
