I tried to format the 2 GB SD card with the both methods described in manual 26-8. Result one - FORMAT FAIL. I formated card in PC to FAT16 file system. The calculator recognizes card, but it can not be formatted. Maybe it is not possible format SD cards larger than 1 GB in HP 50g. But there is one file "SYSTEM~1" in SD card. Is it only some protected area on SD card, that do not disappear until card is not formatted in HP 50g? Maybe it to stay? It looks like the card works well.

After you format the card in a PC, do not look at the card in File Explorer or any other program, just immediately remove it from the PC after telling it to 'Safely Remove' the card. This should prevent creation of the System file. Note that the System file does cause problems and won't affect the 50g. But it may bug you to see it all the time (it would me) so this idea may help.
