I have an extreme 3 that is only a couple months old. when I set it up with a 1gb card in it it will take anywhere from 5 to 20 pics and freeze up. I mean it quits completely, can't get it to do anything[:@]The only way to get it to work is to unplug the batteries, plug them back in, reset it, then it will take a few more pics and freeze up again.. Any ideas on what I should do or what might be causing this problem?? customer service was no help... thanks.

Sounds like the cards but you've tried 4 different ones.
Were they namebrand cards are cheapies?

name brand - different brands too. By the way, I have three other wildviews and these cards work fine in them..

You may want to check the full reviews on the wildview at chasingame.com go to the review tabs for 2007 or 2008 and click on your model to see their test results. Some models showed lock ups but not on all.............

I was using 1gb and 2gb cards in my wildview and found it started corrupting a greater and greater percentage of the images. I called their support and they told me that you should not use over 512mb cards in it. I bought a few cheap on ebay, going to give them a try hope it solves my problem. Perhaps you want to stick to smaller cards?
