The hard drive is defective and needs to be replaced. Unfortunate but its a pretty easy install. Have part on hand.

This is most likely a defective zoom rocker switch assembly and can usually be repaired fairly inexpensively. However, it's not a user serviceable problem and will need to be repaired by a qualified service technician.

No you do not need a memory card to record. The JVC Everio GZ-MG130 is a hard disk drive camcorder with a built-in 30 gigabyte hard drive to record to. You can, however, use an SD memory card if you want to add additional space to save your videos and pictures to.

If it were my camera, and I really wanted to delete everything on the hard drive I would format the hard drive.

The only "workaround" I have found so far was to record to the SD chip. Took the chip out of the camera and put it in the computer. Saved it to the computer. Changed the extension from .mob to .avi. Windows Movie maker then recognized it and I could edit.

Hi,
JVC GZ-MG21U camcorder hardware does support maximum 2GB SD Card and more than 2GB memory card will not accepted by camcorder hardware.
Your 16GB and 4GB SD Cards are just fine but are not compatible with this particular camcorder and GZ-MG21U is also just fine and needs up to 2GB or less SD memory card.
It is just compatibility issue. Click JVC Support link to download user manual copy of GZ-MG21U and check page-67 of manual for memory card info.
Hope this info will help you.
Thanks.
