The reason you have a "extra drive" is because according to your computer your card reader is an extra drive. In Windows XP, the compact flash reader with a CF card in it is marked as "Removable Drive" For me, it is drive F, as I have a CD rom and a Burner. Shelley L.

My husband just bought a flash card reader, and I was curious about using it to add files to the CF cards I use in my Braille Lite. I'm confused, though, about the E drive. Why do you need an extra drive, to transfer files from your computer to your CF card?

I got a flashcard reader at Staples, with drivers on a CD to install.. If you use a braille display you will have to make a Drive E. You put the flash card in the flash card reader first and transfer books from the computer onto it. Then you put the flash card in the slot for it in back of the Braille Lite... Someone else can probably explain it better than I, but that is the idea. My Drive E is hooked up to a USB port. Good luck, it's real easy once you get set up.

I just got one the other day and am trying to figure out how to use the flash memory card port. I wanted to store all of my books onto a flash card to make it a bit easier. Is there a specific program that I need to use? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
