Default Vista Cannot Read 2GB SD CARD

My Duracell 4Gb Micro SDHC came with a SD adapter and a USB adapter.
I downloaded the Microsoft fix wich enabled me to read the card but only
with the "built-in" SD card reader in my laptop.

The fix did not solve the problem with an external USB card reader on my
desktop.

The Micro SD to USB adapter included with the card is recognized by my
computer as a removeable disk but when the Micro SD card is inserted into the
adapter the computer does not see the memory card.

Has there been any update on resolving the problem.

I used the information listed below to edit the registery.
Hope this helps you.


Now you need to edit registry to change SD card settings.
Run regedit.

Key you want to edit is located in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlS* et001\Services\tifm21\Parameters
Original Key Value: SDParam = 16 (Decimal)
New Key Value: SDParam = 1

This registry fix solved my problem, and I'm VERY grateful for it. For
the sake of information, does anyone know what changing this key
actually does?

Thanks for the prompt answer but unfortunately there is no such key in
my registry - think I will have to keep XP on my system ;-(

I re-checked the registery information I posted and discovered an error
in the string.
I did a copy/paste from the information I had located in 8/08.

I edited my original reply and corrected the string. Give this a try.

Default Vista Cannot Read 2GB SD CARD

Windows applications that are capable of using registry entries to change
their behavior do not necessarily store the default values for their
behavior in the registry when installed. But they will check the registry
each time the run and if the entry is their they will use instead of their
default value. Therefore if you add the entry it will most likely be used.

Thanks a lot for your help but I already searched for "tifm21" and
"SDParam" in the whole registry before with no result at all. Think this
depends on the type of card-reader used. Maybe I'll try a newer
card-reader.

Thanks
