It appears to be saying drive H, I assume this is your card reader isnt
working/has an unidentifiable fault.
As I said before, I have seen reports of problems with the card reader
supplied on your sys.

Personnally I simply use usb from my camera, and use rechargable batteries
for that. But maybe I dont use it as much as you?
Considered buying an external usb reader, or do you have one you could
borrow, to test on your sys?
I dont know about your side of the pond, but here a retailer would refund me
if it did'nt work

## H drive is the flash-card reader. I guess I'll just have to download them manually from now on. What a king size pain in the (_|_) that is. :-( The flash drive does work because I can go to WE and click on H drive - and unload the card that way. So it does work and does see the jpg files on the flash card.

"Before this I downloaded and installed the fix for C:\  ="
I have no idea what your refering to - sorry

## There was a "fix" at that website. I hoped it may help - it didn't. Thanks for all your help. You and Sharon have the patience of saints.

================================
Why is it saying service pacl 1 when I have SP2 installed?
This is what happened:

AutoFix [V5.2.3790.67]

    >> Repair << [Legacy AutoPlay Event]
      Step: No steps to take.
      Result: This AutoPlay setting cannot be fixed. Either the device is
malfunctioning, or the wizard cannot determine the problem.
    >> Repair << [Autoplay V2 Event]
      Step: No steps to take.
      Result: This AutoPlay setting cannot be fixed. Either the device is
malfunctioning, or the wizard cannot determine the problem.

>> Required action: The wizard found problems but cannot fix them -> None

Before this I downloaded and installed the fix for C:\  = now the window
asking what I want to do doesn't come up.
