Card Is Unreadable

I have a hp 3x optical zoom 7.2 megapixels digital camera, I've taken pictures with the 1gb memory card thats inserted in the camera but now I am receiving the same message "unreadable card". I've cut the camera on and off, tried another memory card, tried formating the card but still gets the same message.
