So one of the times I decided to have vista fix it for me and after that the cybook would not work if the card was plugged into it. So I reformatted the card and now the gen3 will work just fine with the card installed but it doesn't show any of the files that I have on it. Any suggestions?

First, make sure you've got the Cybook plugged into an appropriate USB slot. Usually, that means moving cables around to place the Cybook into one of the rear-of-the-motherboard USB ports.
Second, you may well need to re-format the SD card with FAT32.
Third, there's always the chance that the SD card you got with the Cybook is just not going to work. Yes, this *HAS* been a problem with the 2GB SD cards Bookeen supplies. I know that the older SanDisk (blue case, blue/white/red label) SD cards up to 2GB in size work great. I buy them for less than $6 (2GB size) on eBay.
