If an unformatted card or one with an incompatible format is inserted,

Memory Card Format. To start the format tool, point to or click the
following items:

The computer will restart.
■ If you forget your HDD User Password, TOSHIBA will NOT be able to
assist you, and your HDD will be rendered COMPLETELY and
PERMANENTLY INOPERABLE. TOSHIBA will NOT be held
responsible for any loss of any data, any loss of use or access to your
HDD, or for any other losses to you or any other person or organization
that result from the loss of access to your HDD. If you can’t accept this
risk, don’t register the HDD User Password.
■ When saving the HDD User Password shut down or restart the
computer. If the computer is not shut down or restarted, the saved data
may not be correctly reflected. For more information on shutting down
or restarting the computer, refer to Turning on the power in Chapter 1.
When you format an SD memory card, all data will be deleted. Be sure to
save data on the card to other media before you format the card.
