    it could be possible the thing has simply died.
    what’s the age and history?

    where did it come from, camera or PC or Mac?, FAT, NTFS or other?

        if you have tried a couple of PC’s, and some other device like a camera, and all of them can’t detect it, then that’s good enough for me to say it’s dead.
        then the question is, is there important data on it you need to recover?
        if no, chuck it.
        if yes, then the fun begins, but being FAT32, you’ll only recover the first extent of any file, so there’s a better than average chance a lot of its contents will be classed as overwritten or corrupted. but the first hurdle will still be finding a PC that reads the card.
        on that front, have you tried a PC running a Linux distro as I have had some success on those when a Windows PC couldn’t do the job.
