Question about cardreader/writer

Recommended Posts

I have newly bought a 6 in 1 cardreader/writer. under W2k pro i must install it's software. but under XP pro SP1 is that necessary. Right?. but why sometimes when i boot up the Pc then It wont light on and the Drive wont appear under the Explorer ?. must i install its driver? ;(

What do the instructions say?

 

Some card readers probably have their drivers shipped as part of Windows. Others won't.

 

The one I have required that you installed some software first, rebooted, and then plugged the card reader in (I think that's right anyway).

I have done after the instuction under W2k pro and it works well. as i change the system to XP pro before i install the software for it. the XP pro with Sp1 has recognized it , i mean as removable storage and can read/write from it. so i thought i can save the installation of the software which need about 5mb as a process. but sometimes when i bootup Xp the logical device will disappear and the cardreader/writer wont light on. I havent try repluggin the USB Port, may be it's just some sleep funtion from the XP, or not? or another bug of SP1
