Hi, I got the sony digital mavica camera last year for about 1000 dollar (I know Im a moron) now there 500. But ever time I put a floppy disk in it says "format error" and I formated it in the computer and I took it to sony store and they said it would cost 100 to repair(I think is a scam) I tryed memory sticks too and same error. Any way around paying 100 or am I just screwed?? Please help I didn't find the right solution from the internet.
