So I got this 16GB SD CARD that keeps unmounting itself. I was wondering what should I do to fix this. various forums suggest a reformat to fat32 problem is windows can't format it. if I right click on the drive format options are unavailable. I have also tried formatting using the phone itself still no options for it.

it's this. wasn't even sure with the brand tbh but it was cheap so I'm guessing it is locked or something.

how are you connecting it to you PC without the phone?

oh I use the phone and connect it to the pc. I was thinking it could be formatted if I used a media card reader but that means I'll have to buy one ughhh.
