Hi Carol,
Yes, "Eject" sounds an odd word for a device that cannot
actually spit the cards physically out of the drive, but
what can I say?

Oh, so I should be going for eject. That would work in some
devices but
what about CF cards?

Hi Carol,
Safely remove Hardware is doing exactly what it says on
the
tin. It is for totally removing the device. That said, if
you then physically remove it, wait a second or two, and
plug it back in, it should be there, but........
What you should be using is "Eject Card" or something
similar. Unfortunately I don't have my own card reader
handy to go through the precise details, but from My
Computer, if you right click on the drive, the option
should
be there. If it does happen to be writing to the device
at
the time, you will get a warning message.
George.

Yep, but I'm having to reboot all the time to start off
the
storage device
once again ...
Kind of sickening!

Carol and all, if I get this message I generally would

Thanks, Usuf, but I definitely stop and remove the
hardware properly.
Like you, I have occasionally come across the message
that indicates the
device isn't stopped but a repeat does it.
I'm a bit foxed with this one, let me tell you.

Hi Carol, The only thing I thought was are you making
sure that your
correctly removing the storage device? Do you go
through
the steps: 1
safely remove hardware, 2 select the device from the
list, 3 tab to stop
device and then make sure that windows has given you
the
message that it
is safe to remove the device.
sometimes I have noticed that windows says it is unable
to remove the
device and gives an ok button. but repeating the
process
works. I think
this is down to a program in windows stil accessing the
hard drive.

Hi All,
Forgive me if you've seen this but I had no replies
and
wondered
whether the original message got through. Any help
would be much
appreciated.
I'm having a problem with my USB storage device, built
into the
computer, in
that, once I've stopped a device to take out a CF card
(or similar), I
then
cannot insert another card of the same type and get
the
device going
again.
This also applies to my stand-alone USB ports and an
external card
reader I
sometimes use. My only way forward seems to be to
reboot. As I am
frequently wanting to use various cards, this is
somewhat annoying, to
say
the least ...
I don't recall that these ports always worked like
this
and wonder if
something has changed (with regard to MS Services
which
may have become
turned off (perhaps as various software has been
introduced or
upgraded)
that are needed for my USB's to function correctly.
I haven't knowingly played with any Services and,
before doing so,
would
value any thoughts as to whether a manual change made
by me will solve
the
problem. If you have any suggestions, I look forward
to hearing from
you.
Thanks.
