    Default First Canon Startup

    Well, I decided to pull the trigger on getting my first FF SLR, a 1DX Markii.
    I figured I’d start with charging the battery and making sure the firmware was up to date.
    It seems that the Canon process is to move the firmware update file to the CF card (that is formatted in the camera) on the computer, and then moving the card back to the camera. My computer wouldn’t recognize the card unless I formatted it on the computer, but then a notice pops up that the card can’t be formatted.
    Can someone please help me out with some direction here?
    Feeling kinda dumb at the moment.

    Edit:
    The card is a Delkin 256 gig udma 7. I’m guessing that it may be a newer generation and speed greater than the reader on my pc. I’ll order an appropriate reader.
