Hey, I have a Texas Instruments Card Reader DRIVER:[ PCIxx12 Integrated FlashMedia Controller Driver (64-BIT)], but I cannot access SD CARDS. When I put my 2GB SD Card in it asks me to format, but when I try to format it, It says It cannot format, thus making the card useless. anyone else have this problem ! -- colt22 |

Vista Cannot Read 2GB SD CARD
Hi colt22,
A number of points. Check your SD card. Is the lock tab moved towards lock? To unlock the card, this tab should be moved towards the rear of the card, ie towards the contacts end. Another thing is that there are actually 2 formats of SD card. The first is a standard card which can be readable in most card readers but the second is a newer format, SDHC, and these can only be read in compatible readers or adapters (many of these come with a USB adapter).

Dwarf I don't think there are any 2G SDHC. SDHC starts at 4G and above. Probably just have an incompatible (with that specific slot) card. Happens to me all the time. Just either a. throw it away and never buy that particular brand /type again or b. find out what it DOES work with, write that on it with a Sharpie, and restrict its use to just those devices.

Vista Cannot Read 2GB SD CARD
..I believe this to be a problem with the Vista 32 and 64 bit versions SD
driver for your card reader and mine (Lexar Media multi-card reader). I just type us a very informative reply with proof and all but this forumn didn't save it so now I will keep it short. Works fine if you have a card reader that uses Microsofts drivers (like in the HP pavillion). Quickest solution buy an new card reader that uses Microsofts drivers for the SD card.

Vista Cannot Read 2GB SD CARD
I have exact same problem. My 2Gb SD card works perfectly on my one
labtop with Windows XP, and doesn't work on the other labtop with Windows Vista (the drive doesn't even show up in [My] Computer in Vista). Both labtops are made by Toshiba. My SD card contains pictures in it. Any help from any experts would be highly appreciated. I wonder if Microsoft knows about this? |
