Default SD (Secure Digital) Causes Blue Screen in Vista x64


I already have KB929777 installed, and I have an ATI Graphics Card not
an NVIDIA; but it does appear the error is ram related. It took me a
while, but I finally figured out why you're leaning in this direction.
The Card Reader was stable with Vista x32 only seeing 2GB ram. So,
after recollecting the crash data I yanked the second memory stick and
guess what. The Card Reader works rock solid in Vista x64. It's
looking now like the Card Reader and the upper 2GB of ram are trying to
share the same address space. I would have thought Device Manager would
catch the conflict, but I guess not. I'm fairly certain my BIOS doesn't
have a memory remapping feature; but this can be done in Device Manager
can't it?

BTW, I haven't flashed the BIOS chip with the new version yet; but I'll
check for this feature as soon as I do.
