All I can say is... oops. If you read the instructions that come with most memory cards, you'll find they say that reformating your card is not advisable. If the camera can't fix it, I doubt windows will. Try it again tho... and be careful what format you use. Try FAT 32.

check the card for a switch. It is possible that the 128 card has two separate 64 MB memory banks. Otheriwse the card is defective, formatting it probably wont solve the problem.

FAT32 will not work on SD cards, only FAT12 (same as floppy) is supported, don't ask why though :) I just found out from experience.
