Okay, so as I was adding mods in my Project M build I was going to put it in my PC to insert more mods I found. But as I did, the SDHC card doesn't read it. Then I tested it in the Wii in the Homebrew Channel and it doesn't work either, though the other ones seem to run well.

Is there a way to fix my SDHC card? Thanks!

This is the SDHC card I have:

did you accidentally lock it?
No. At least I don't think so. All I know is that it just doesn't want to work.

Edit: Huh. For some reason I think it might be working at the moment. I might need to see if it works some more. I will let you know about this. So far it works on one PC but not my original one so far.

you can easily check if you've locked it instead of saying' i dont think so' its that slider on the side that says 'lock'
Well it ain't locked. Thing is it works on some PCs but not on the Wii. It's like the Wii doesn't read that SDHC card doesn't want to read it.

I formatted the SDHC card and it's not working on the Wii. I think it might be dead.
Well, I least I saved my backups on the PC.

I had this same problem once with my normal SD card. It seems that the Wii is more sensitive of the contacts of the SD card becoming dirty than PCs. So try cleaning your SDHC card's contacts a bit and see if that fixes it.
