SD Memory Card driver
http://forums.logitech.com/logitech/...essage.id=3755
contains the permanent solution to INFCACHE.1 issues. Of note, I did not have to boot from the DVD - couldn't if I wanted to as my hard drive is encrypted. Instead, change the security of the files mentioned in the article to all Users to have Full Control, then you can delete them. I've had no further USB drive issues since. I've tried SD, flash card, hard drive, notebook wireless mouse, and notebook webcam.

The file is located at: C:\Windows\inf. There, scroll down to the INFCACHE.1 file and right click it and select delete. To do this, you will likely have to give yourself permission to delete it, because of Windows built-in Security. Just right click the file, select Properties and then click on the security tab. Let us know whether this procedure does anything. Sometimes it does and sometimes not. -- freddy "Bill Holland" wrote: It really doesn't matter how it's removed. I can simply remove it, "Safely Remove It", or use Device Manager, the result is the same. I can use one of my daughters' laptops (E1505 with Vista Home Premium) and insert, remove, insert, remove, etc and they work just fine. They are really designed to be used like a floppy disk. The reader is an ATA device, not a USB device. "JW" wrote: I get the option to safely remove my SD card which is installed directly into my laptop without the use of a set top reader. However, I agree that it might be better to Uninstall it using device manager. "PaulB" wrote in message ... Hi, When you click "safely remove device" you are removing the card reader not the card. The cards are meant to be removed without clicking anything. -- Paul "Bill Holland" wrote: Running Windows Vista Home Premium on a Dell E1505 with builtin SD Host Adapter. If I boot with an SD card installed I can use it fine. However, if I remove it and later insert it or another one I cannot access the SD card. Device Manager shows a yellow triangle with ! on the SD Memory Card under disk drives. Checking properties shows: Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware because a previous instance of the device driver is still in memory. (Code 38) Click 'Check for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available. Check for solutions, of course, yields not solutions. Any ideas how to solve this? |
