Won't acknowledge memory cards

When I put a memory card in it says "No CF Card" It is the same card I have been using, and I have reformatted it. I have even tried other memory cards...same thing. It just will not read a memory card. My camera is about 3 years old and has received only light usage during that time.

Here's what Canon says:

* If the camera does not work properly, the inserted CF card may be malfunctioning. Reformatting the CF card may solve the problem.
* When a non-Canon brand CF card is malfunctioning, reformatting it may solve the problem.
* CF cards formatted in another camera, computer or peripheral device may not operate correctly. When that happens, reformat the CF card with this camera.

But since you've tried several cards, that eliminates the card and leads me to believe that the camera may need servicing. Was it dropped recently?
