Unable to access file system on sd card.

I am using the teensy audio adapter and when i run the SD card test it reads the card type as SD fine, but then stops because it can't access the file system. Anyone have an idea what could be causing this?
I have tried two different SD cards, one of which i am sure of being genuine. I have also reformatted both with the windows SD card formatter.

we need more information:
which teensy (2 or 3) ?
which SD software ?
which SD card (size)?

if SD card size >32 GB, standard formatting is exFAT which is not supported by common teensy SD software
 
It's Teensy 3.2
I am not quite sure what you mean by software, it's the one in windows 10 that is available if you right click a SD card in file explorer.
The sizes are 16gb and 2gb .
 
It's the one that comes with Teensyduino under Audio>Hardware Testing>SdCardTest

Code:
// SD Card Test
//
// Check if the SD card on the Audio Shield is working,
// and perform some simple speed measurements to gauge
// its ability to play 1, 2, 3 and 4 WAV files at a time.
//
// Requires the audio shield:
//   http://www.pjrc.com/store/teensy3_audio.html
//
// Data files to put on your SD card can be downloaded here:
//   http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_AudioDataFiles.html
//
// This example code is in the public domain.

That is unusual..
Is the audio board soldered to the teensy ?
I'm asking, becuase sometimes user prefer other ways...which do not work :)
