Hello,
When I insert an SD card into the reader Windows doesn't show any reaction and the SD card drive doesn't show up in the Explorer. Does anyone have an idea what I could do to find the reason and get it working again?
It's a Thinkpad X61s with Windows Vista. Windows' device manager doesn't show any problems, an "SD hostadapter" is shown as working without problems.
I am using Comodo Antivirus and I wonder if it might prevent the driver from loading, but that is just a vague guess. Closing it didn't help.
Regards,
Ken

SD card reader not working at all
Re: SD card reader not working at all
Remove the driver in system properties and let Windows re-install the missing driver. Just a guess.

Re: SD card reader not working at all
Mine has had an intermittent issue for a long time. I have to plug the card in several times before it "registers".
Is the reader supposed to read SDHC (4 and 8GB) too?

Re: SD card reader not working at all
In the Device Manager I uninstalled the card reader, then from the menu let Windows look for new devices. Windows found the card reader and installed local drivers. Now it works fine.
Thank you!
Thank you!
