Noob here Can't format SD Card

[thumper]

I have DS-2CD2032F-IW camera, I use web browser because I can't figure to how to set up iVMS-4200.

128GB SD card installed, go to format and it stops at 26% and no gb available.

How do I format the SD Card and what format is the camera using?

Thank You

Does the 2032 support 128gb? Not sure... Try a 32 or 64gb card...

Yes. ordered a sandisk 128gb, I was told by merchant they use sandisk,

it may be the generic $11.00us 128gb sd card

anyone have experience with the cheap sd cards?

SD card for IP Camera to be class 10 for good functioning
SD cards very cheap and lower class are not going well functioning IP cameras.

Where did you buy this card? There are TONS of fakes out there.

Ebay

probably a fake card. Try formatting in a pc, also see what happens when you dump a ton of data on in. If you paid 11 for a 128 sandisk card, its pretty much guaranteed to be fake. http://www.rmprepusb.com/tutorials/-fake-usb-flash-memory-drives

Sounds like you ordered from a no name place. Dont do it. Its not worth the savings. Even if the card is the proper size, if its fake, it may have low quality components.
