Can Windows really *break* a card (rather than just the filesystem on it)?
It 'might' be an urban myth - I've heard it often but most instances I
came across were recoverable (parted), some where not.
Disclaimer: my experience of that problem is very limited - maybe half a
dozen instances.
I "suspect" the problem stems from autoformat, and a problem with
Sdbus.sys during ADMA tranfers - MS pushed out some updates in late '09
that seemed to fix it. NOTE: It only seemed to occur with un-updated
laptops - so I'm not certain that heat didn't play a part.
