While I was formatting the other day I noticed Windows showed me a 7.9gb partition which I deleted along with the the main partition of my harddrive. It wasn't until later that I realised the 7.9gb was an 8gb memory card I'd put in my card reader.

Although I know I've lost whatever was on it, I can't even open the 'drive' now. When I plug the card in to the usb via the reader, it shows up in My Computer as another drive but I cannot access it, instead getting the message 'please insert a disk into removable drive'.

Have I totally nuked my memory card or can it be repaired?
