search barred, googled, still haven't found the answer im looking for.

whenever i film with my gopro it looks like its recording just fine, and when i get to the bottom it says its still recording, and stop recording. When i go to upload at the end of the day, in all clips it just randomly cuts out. There is no pattern, some clips are 10 secs long when they should be a full minute, others are 2 minutes long before they cut out. It isn't just cutting out from jerky motion, its at any given time. Im using a kingston 16gb sd hc card which apparently shouldn't be the issue? I've searched forever for the answer/fix and haven't found it and am so close to giving up and getting a contour.
someone please help me? :(

It's either your computer, memory card or gopro. Has to be one of those.

how long have you had the gopro/memory card/computer? older computers often dont work with newer cameras and technology. also, what class is the memory card? it should be class 4 or higher, but if it is not then you should look in to getting a new one.
