[Leica] Problem with new to me M8

[rgacpa at yahoo.com (Bob Adler)]

Do you have a non-hc card? Firmware may be old and, if I remember correctly, 
the old firmware didn't support SDHC cards...

After scrimping and saving I finally bought a demo M8 from an authorized 
online dealer. Just came today and I can't get it to work.  Charged battery 
for a few hours and tried three SD cards including a new 4G one.  When I 
turn it on with the card installed, the red light on the back comes on and I 
get an "SD" in the rangefinder window.  Menu doesn't respond so can't try to 
reformat card.  Anyone have an idea what might fix it?  I hate to send it 
back if there is some way to make it work.  If it has to go back, as far as 
I am concerned they can refund my money, as this is BS on a camera which 
supposedly was checked out by Leica.  Thanks!
