Re: Internal USB flash card reader problem



Open device manager and remove ALL the USB ports, hubs and
devices, check for hidden devices. Then reinstall each
device, one at a time.

| Sometime in the last month or 6 weeks (I didn't notice

card reader.

external USB

device) and it sees
| this device just fine.
|

same thing... so

can see the items

consumer control
| device). Even with a flash card inserted, there's nothing
in the My

installed any

removing a number

difference, in case of a
| conflict... so far nothing works. There's a long stretch
of unused drive
| letters from E through L for the item to use (it used to
show 4 separate
| drive letters).
|
| I assume that I installed something that's hosed this
device... but I don't
| have a clue as to what it could be.
|
| Here's my system:
| Asus A7N8XE Deluxe (BIOS 1013) with AMD Athlon XP 3200+
and 1 gig RAM.
| ATI Radeon X800pro video card
| 1 Seagate 200gig SATA hard-drive
| 1 Maxtor OneTouch II external hard-drive via firewire
connection
| 1 Sony DRU 720A DVD-RW player
|
| I have all the current nVidia motherboard drivers and ATI
video drivers
| installed. Everything else is working just fine.
|
| Thanks.
