    Hello, (please move the thread if it's not here)
    Is there any way to format an invisible micro sd card? Well, when connected to a laptop this one produces a standard sound but unfortunately nothing can be done in the following screens for more information. Please help if there are any programs to format invisible connected drives (good ram 8gb card).

    When I often have a problem with a card to put it into the phone, he formats it and then put it into the computer.

    The problem may be in the socket.
    Some slots had a separate mechanical plate to detect card insertion. Maybe you have that the card insert has detected the card since detection (hence you have the sound), but the communication pins have no contact.
    Either try the card on another computer or try to clean the card contacts.

    I cleaned the card with a handkerchief with an admixture of perfumes, connected to another laptop and the same result was only the sound of windows, the drivers installed, but unfortunately the same. Even to older Nokia I put out of curiosity it showed that the card is unformatted and that the used, used, free space is 0 :(

    Well, the only thing I can tell you is try to download and run the gparted live CD version and look at this card from it. Alternatively, try formatting it.

    I don't know if running Gparted in DemonTools will do anything. It is better to prepare a booted version, e.g. from a pendriva, and start at system startup. Launching in Demon Tools can isolate Gparted from necessary system components.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the issue of formatting an invisible micro SD card, specifically a GoodRAM 8GB card, when connected to a laptop. The user reports that the card is recognized by the system (indicated by a sound) but does not appear in file management interfaces. Suggestions include trying to format the card using a mobile phone, checking the card slot for mechanical issues, and cleaning the card contacts. A recommended solution is to use GParted, a partition editor, to attempt formatting the card. However, there are concerns about running GParted in a virtual environment (Demon Tools) rather than from a bootable USB drive, as it may not access necessary system components.
