Nord Lead 1 PCMCIA card weird issue

Hi fellow Nord Lead 1 users,

On my Nord Lead 1 keys I am using a newly bought PCMCIA card from Memorix Elektronics. When I first used the card it asked to format it and all the save slots were unused. But now all the unused save slots have been replaced with duplicates of the same sound. At first glance it appeared to be a faulty battery because eventually the card would not be read anymore by the Nord Lead. But after replacing the battery the same issue continued. What also is strange is that the Nord Lead did not prompt to format the card after receiving a new battery.

It is an similair issue as posted here on the official Nord Lead forums:

Have other Nord Lead users faced the same issue with their equipment and found a solution for this or could this be a technical issue on which the Nord Lead needs to be checked by a hardware specialist?

Thanks in advance!
