Weird... did you try re-flashing your card? I got some read errors off and on when I wired mine up but that was fixed when I added some shielding, and it always worked when I put the card in the original SD card reader.

i had similar problems before but turned out some of the tracers was using the same as other pins, check to make sure you have no short.

Sorry, I meant the underside of the sd card adaptor itself, so I can see which SD card pins go where.
