Can't mount SD card...

Recently i bought a tablet running Android 2.3 .

Long story short - my previous SD card got broken and i had to take it out piece by piece pout of the MicroSD slot. I bought a new SD card, 2gb. I formatted it through PC, but when i insert it, nothing happens. The "Mount SD Card" is grayed out, so i can't press it.

I tried turning off the tablet, taking out and putting back the sd card. When i did that, i powered on the tablet and it said something like "Checking SD card for errors" and that's it.

When i connect the tablet with or without SD card via USB to my PC, it just makes noise as something connected but doesn't show any disks.

If i DID damage the Micro SD slot, is that fixable?
 
There's really no way to tell without examining the slot. It could be a bent pin, which might be fixable. A broken one on the other hand would be much harder. Is the tablet a brand name? There may be a repair shop that could handle it.
