4gb CF Woes

DaveMB · 18 August 2011, 19:52

Hi, tearing my hair out here,

I have 2x sandisk ultra II CF Cards and no matter what i do i can NOT get either WinUAE OR my real 1200 to see more than 233mb??

Can somebody please give me a guide on what to do? what am i doing wrong?

HDToolbox only alows me 233mb of useable size
