Computer Can Not Detect SD Or Pro Cards When Inserted.
Oct 1, 2009
i have an HP Pavilion Slimline Vista 64, a few days ago i tried putting in my SD card in the built-in slot but my computer wouldnt detect, i tried viewing the files on my phone and the files wouldnt come up there either, it said that i had a card in but the card had 0% space used up, but also had 0% free. so i figured the card was no good anymore...then i tried viewing files from a PRO Duo stick, which the computer also has a built-in slot for, and itwouldnt detect it either(even though the little green light that indicates a card being put in flashes) but when i insert the PRO Duo in my PSP i can view the files just fine.
I am running Vista Home Premium, 6.0, SP1. I have a Lexmark 8350 that has been running fine. Today I decided to use the Photo Card reading capability on the Lexmark. I put an xD photo card in and the printer read it fine, allowed me to view and print photos from the printer LCD screen. However, when I try to "save to computer" I have problems. It brings up the interface window on the computer with the message "Cannot detect photo card inserted". Which is odd, since the card is definitely inserted with the photos being read by the printer.
Using Vista, when i try to install it, it cant detect the hard drive. I proceed to scan for it and inserted my motherboard drive and it still cant find it. I go into bios and i find that SATA 1-4 shows no hard drive but it is clearly connected :/ The IDE Optical Drive works fine though.
I have just recently cleaned my computer using a duster after having not cleaned it for a good 2-3 months and have 2 pcs connected to a billion...Billion modem which I do not remember the serial for. Since reconnecting the PC however after cleaning it out the machine no longer detects my Ethernet cable as being plugged into my network card (a Realtek RTL8168B/8111B Family PCi-E GBE NIC)....I have tried disabling and renabling the network card on vista, disconnecting the cable and reconnecting it where the network card itself lights up as well as removing the card and re-slotting it in before booting on the PC again however the issue continues to exist. It has always worked for the past year or so and so I am baffled as to why it would suddenly stop working.
When I put a disk into my CD/DVD drive and then go into Computer and click my E: drive, all I get is the 'Please insert disc into E: ...' message. Up until a few days ago the exact same discs were working with my system, and they're working because I've run them on my PS3 to check.
Is this a side effect of some sort of paternalistic code inserted into IE to keep me 'safe' on the Internet? And how come there's no IE7 group on this server? Has Microsoft given up on the product?
I know this probably isn't the correct newsgroup for this question, but here goes.How do you use an SD Card?
I have just bought a new one and used it in a camera. The camera confirms that there are saved photos on the card but when I connect it to the SD slot on the computer nothing seems to happen. I do notice a green light appears next to the slot on the computer as if it is reading something, but, having left it for 10 mins, nothing else has happened.
I use USB memory sticks for backup. I wonder if I should be using SD cards? My PC has slots for both. I have used SD cards in my camera, but never in my pc. Does anyone know how they compare in terms of speed and cost per gigabyte?
I own an ASUS CG5290, and it came with an ASUS Rampage II Gene motherboard, an ASUS GTX 260 896mb graphics card, 9 gbs of ram, and an i7 running at 2.66. My video card was acting up so I decided to purchase a BFG GTX 275 896mb GDDR3 and picked up a 900w power supply. Then as I was installed it, I noticed that my PSU said something about being SLI ready and I looke up on to that. Can my computer dual run 2 different cards? An ASUS GTX 260 and a BFG GTX 275?
I have question: I have an ATI All in Wonder PCIE and a ATI AIW NON PCIE Video cards. my mobo has slots for both. could I use both of them in this machine?
I have recently installed a ATI Radeon HD 4670 into my computer, I downloaded the latest ATI Catalyst driver from the ATI website and it installed the latest driver for both of the video cards, after it restarted I get this error message in the device manager for the ATI Radeon HD 4670:
Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware because a previous instance of the device driver is still in memory. (Code 38)
I checked in the device manager and it says it has the same wddm driver version for both devices, I have tried installing many times but it continues to presist, is this a Windows Vista or ATI issue? Is there anything I can do to fix it?
out of these 2 video cards, which of these would you recommend? Newegg.com - MSI N94GT-MD512 GeForce 9400 GT 512MB 128-bit GDDR2 PCI Express x16 HDCP Ready Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards
I build my own PC and install 2 x 8600GTS NVidia graphic card as my motherboard(ASUS M2N-SLI DELUXE) allowed it.Unfotunatly each time I click on "SLI" (recommended) my pc freezes. I have to turn it off ,take off the SLI connector and restart it this happening for about 6 months now.Of course I join the "SLI NVidia Forums Zone" straight away and I am still waiting for an answer.
Running Windows Vista Ult and i installed a second graphics card to run 3 monitors. The problem is device manager doesn't show the second installed graphics card.
My System:
E6850 GA-x38-DQ6 MoBo 4Gb ram
8800 Ultra 7600GT (This is the card i added)
Basically it recognizes the 8800 Ultra only. I have read that to use dual cards with Vista they need to use the same drivers (169.25), which they do. Even if that wasn't the case shouldn't the graphics card show in device manager regardless?
Is there something about Vista and dual graphics that i am missing?
The 7600GT functions fine, (tested in another computer) so i am at a loss here.
I got MoBo ASUS P5N32-SLI Premium running Vista Ultimate 32bit on Core 2 Duo Processor. Recently I got another Graphic Card ATI Radeon X1900XTX 512MB PCI-e which I already have one. So, I plan to use the two X1900XTX cards on my system. I already checked the cards but found it has no connection to enable the so-called SLI bridge to connect the two cards.
1. Is there any way for me to use the 2 cards on my PC (crossfire/SLI)? 2. Does the crossfire dongle will make the 2 cards works? 3. Any new tech that enable crossfire with non-SLI cards?
I've got 2 displays atached to my ATI X1950XT wich has 2 DVI connectors. Now the thing is that I would like to install a third display using my second graphic card ( NOTE! its different ) its a old PCI with only one vga but how do I install it in VISTA? Does Vista support multiple graphic drivers?

I have Vista installed which is working with my Gainward Graphic card, but with no Aero or 3D rendering. So I am looking to upgrade my card. Without breaking the bank I am open to suggestions as to what upgrade graphic card I should go for, I have an AGP board.
When I remove a memory card (xD, Smart Media, etc.,)from my multi-card reader on my computer after transfering photos to my hard drive, do I need to use the "Safely Remove Hardware" function? How about when I remove a USB Flash Drive after transfering photos? Or is the "Safely Remove Hardware" option just used when removing a USB connected device such as a printer or scanner?::
have looked through other helpful posts on here regarding the Autorun problems, having looked into that i checked all registry entries etc that were fine, however, i dont have the NoDriveTypeAutoRun where it should be all i have is
(Default) BindDirectlyToPropertySetStorage
This doesnt seem to tie in with the write ups i have looked at and cant find the NoDriveTypeAutoRun. Also, there is no action when i insert the cdrom or dvd etc into the pc, have looked to find the manual start procedure but cant see anything in there, what drive should i be looking in?
P.S. Not sure of the MoBo build. It was the original MoBo that came with the computer.
I originally did what I normally do when installing any graphics card; I uninstalled the on-board graphics card drivers and disabled it, then attempted to install the drivers for the new card. While running the installation, an error appeared telling me that it didn't detect any Nvidia compatible hardware in my setup. So I checked my device manager and sure enough, there was only the onboard card showing up in the list. So I tried restarting the computer to see if a reboot would cause it to appear. Nothing happened, so I ran CCleaner and Driver Sweeper to clear any registry and drivers issues that could be occuring. I rebooted, and still nothing appeared. So I went into the BIOS and tried to change some settings in there. I disabled the on-board through the options there, but that only caused the BIOS to give me issues and I couldn't even reach the splash screen, so I reset it and then tried changing the load settings from IGFX-GFXO-GPP-PCI to GFXO-GPP-IGFX-PCI, saved and then rebooted. I got past the splash screen on the new video card but the computer locked up before it would load the OS. So I know that both the card and the PCI-E slot on the MoBo are working fine. But I have run out of ideas as to what to try next to get this to work.
Now i've installed Vista Home Premium 32-bit onto the system, but it will not detect the graphics card at all. Although i have got a display (Motherboard does not have on-board). I've tried using the driver disk supplied with the card, but it always tells me to go to the XFXForce website, so i do and download their drivers and install but CCC does not appear to get installed. I've tried the card in another Vista 32-bit System and it gets found and drivers install nicely and the card works fine. Is there anything wrong that i'm doing??
I recently purchased a Dell with Vista 64 bit. I have been watching DVD's the past few days on it without any problems. I was able to watch one this morning but when a put another one in I received the following message: *Unable to detect DVD or DVD device on this computer*. This computer has yet to be hooked up online, so nothing new has been added or updated on it. I rebooted, as well as un/reinstalled the driver in Device Manager
We have recently installed another computer in the house. I can detect it in 'Network'. If I click on the this new computer icon and login, what features and facilities will be available to me when working on the original computer.
My computer was running fine this morning but when I turned it off for an hour and back on there was no display. I have a PCI-e Geforce 8600GT but when I plug the monitor into the onboard graphics it works fine. I have checked the bios and the primary device is set to PCI-e but my computer won't detect the 8600GT at all now.
I recently purchased a computer on e-bay. I did not know it was a server. I has a aid configuration. I bought Vista Basic. When I try to load it it says it does not detect any hard drives. Is there a way around this? Can Vista basic be loaded on this system?
I was wondering if this was possible with the XP drivers as when i tried to install windows 7 it couldnt detect the drivers at all. I reinstalled XP since and used online software to find the drivers (realteck and VIA/S3) as the company that made the pc (Iqon) have gone into liquidation and the drivers are no longer available from their site.
I am running Vista Home Premium. I had been running 2 Western Digital 500GB drives in RAID 0 mode. The external enclosure was a Fantom enclosure. The controller was going bad, so I bought a Xtrastor 3.5 x2 HDD enclosure which supports RAID 1. Anyhow, when I hook it up via USB, it only detects an 8GB drive. Once I got it to detect it as a 75GB drive. If I hook it up as an eSATA, Vista does not see it at all......It should detect close to 500GB since the other 500GB is for the RAID I have a PB5 motherboard. I have tried a lot of things via the cables and re-booting and such, no luck.
