Default Compact Flash Card Problem

I'm need some help with my compact flash cards in my 5 cuddebacks. All are the 1.3mp cameras. I've had them and used them for quite a while and get literally hundreds of pictures per week (generally on each camera)so I'm used to using them for a while. Some of the cameras have been sent back to the company for repair for one reason or another and have had the board replaced, etc. Anyway, about the last 8 compact flash cards I've bought all give me Error....CamError messages after they try to take the first picture. I've tried not formatting them (if I'm correct, I never did format any of the old ones. I think the camera just took over from the start). I've tried formatting them on my computer at home. I've tried formatting them with the cuddeback itself. Still, every time I set the camera up, I get the error after it tried to take the first picture and then I get nothing stored internally or on the card. The most used cards are san disk (which is also the most used cards that actually work) but some are different brands. I have tried to store pictures from the computer andthey did save on the card. I know on the cuddeback, it creates a folder labeled DCIM with a folder inside it labeled Cuddy100. I've even tried to drag these folders from my desktop into the cards and fool the camera that way, but still no luck. I'm at my wits end and where I work, it's very difficult to get in touch with the company and the few times I've tried, they are apparently helping others and I can't get through. My hours are such that I can't get in touch with them after work and I sure hate to burn a leave day trying to find out what's going on. Can anyone on here help with this issue or maybe find out what's going on? Maybe some of you have had the same problem and already know the solution. Any ideas will help (I think). Thanks in advance for the advice.
