SD Card Woes [Solved]

[amishboy]

I am trying to use the sd card adapter below to extend the sd card up into the cartridge . I have wired it up according to the guides found here but the pi will not recognize the card. I used 28awg wire and put a capacitor across the vss and vdd pins. Could it be wire gauge or is the sd just really finicky?

Shorten the wires.
Twist them.
Eventually shield them.
Could you please add a few pictures of your wiring? Keep us updated about what you changed and if it worked.
