MiniSD slot won't read cards
 

So, I have this player http://cgi.ebay.com/2-TFT-2GB-MP3-MP...QQcmdZViewItem

It's really 1GB not 2, other than that I rather like it and got a decent deal (just under $35 shipped). I wanted to put a MiniSD card in it so I can keep my music and videos separate, but, the 2GB Transcend MiniSD card I bought was not recognized and neither was the 1GB Transcend MiniSD card I bought to replace it.

Anybody have any idea why my player won't recognize my MiniSD cards? FUBAR MiniSD slot perhaps?
