Before you update, have you checked the file system on the card, it could be that its formatted in FAT32 or that it's not even formatted at all.

to be 4gb it has to be FAT32 as FAT16 only supports up to 2gb

Thank you for al the good ideas.
I cannot format the card in the phone because it freezes immediately.

Can you tell me how to update the firmware please? What is SEUS and does it make a difference that I am in the UK

SEUS = Sony Ericsson Update Service. it allows you to upgrade your FW online. it comes with the CD of your mobile. it tells you what to do while the process is on.

Thanks for that.
I have updated my phone firmware as you suggested and I have also got hold of a brand new K750I (present for my wife).

the chip does not work on either of them - it still freezes the phone.

I have reformatted the chip using a card reader on my PC. this does not help. In doing this I have lost the data which I should possibly have backed up before formatting. Could this be the problem or have you better ideas?

thanks

Sorry, but I have only skimmed through this thread, but I was under the impression that the K750i/W800i etc only supports a max of 2gb.

I think Masseur said he's had a 4Gb mem stick working in a K750i, there's a thread on it somewhere but not sure where!

Silly question I know but could it just be the phone freezing while it reads the memory card when first inserted, or is it like that for more than a couple of minutes?

I didn't want to revive the thread or anything like that, but the reason why your memory stick pro duo is freezing your K750 forever is that the memory is formatted to another device.
For example, I got a W900, got 2 memories of 4 gb each one for my psp, I tried putting one into the W900 and it just froze, just like it did with yours.
I formatted the memory stick with the computer like a normal format (not quick), and inserted the memory into the W900, froze like 5-10 seconds (maybe a bit more) and now it worked fine. I noticed that the W900 had formatted the memory stick to its own features (Music, Videos, Etc.) just like the PSP did. Also I did a SEUS update thinking that was the problem but it wasn't.
So now we know just in case something happens like this to someone .
