Hello, I'm new and have the same problem.

I bought a 16gb SD card, as the manual stated this size was supported, just to put music on. I loaded about 4gb worth of music on it, but the reader just did the "opening book" and constantly restarting thing.

I've tried formatting it so it's definitely got the FAT32 system, but still no luck. I've tried adding the files to the disc once it's in the reader and connected to the PC.
The only time I can get it to work is if there is only about 2 albums' worth of music on the card, any more than that and the reader won't start up.

The firmware on my reader is 1.0.02.13180 which I assume is a later version than the one of the Sony site, as the reader says it's already updated if I try to put that version on

Has anyone had any luck with this size SD or Pro Duo card?
