SD card refuses to read

Putting it into my reader and attempting to double click the drive causes explorer to start attempting to read from it, but it takes an extremely long time for this attempt, and after failing simply states "Please insert a disk into drive [drive]".

I can't format it because of this. I tried a low level formatting program, and that didn't work either.

Right before this happened, I was trying to delete a large file off of the card, but the card froze up as I was trying to do so. I was forced to remove the card from the reader, as it was freezing up explorer.


Is my card fixable?
 
It sounds to me like your card is shot. You could try booting into a PartedMagic disc and try to format it, but I can't guarantee anything.
