Note

When formatting a “Memory Stick,” use the format function of your digital camera. You can also use “Memory Stick Formatter” on the supplied software disc. To install “Memory Stick Formatter” onto your computer, start the installer, “MSfmtInst240.exe,” located in the folder, “\MSfmt,” on the software disc. To launch “Memory Stick Formatter” after installation, access the “Memory Stick Utility” folder in the program menu of Windows.

However, a “Memory Stick” formatted on a computer may not be usable depending on the digital camera. In this case, the “Memory Stick” needs to be formatted again on the digital camera.
