I done that now. But I forgot to say that sometimes the drivers don't always load properly. I therefore will try and get updated drivers and see how things go. For the moment Windows is fine with the newly formatted card, but if I eject it then re-insert it there is a chance the change won't be noticed by Windows and I have to force Windows to do it by running the hardware and device troubleshooter.

try formatting the card On 29 Jul 2009, at 17:01, Chris Hallsworth wrote:Hello all,I received my SD card yesterday from a friend who I hope to buy off her tomorrow. It's 4GB in size. I have an Acer Aspire 5735 laptop running Windows 7 RC (was running Vista Home Basic), which comes with the Realtek USB 2.0 Card Reader. I've been experiencing problems when using the card. The problems arrange from difficulties starting Windows to programs not appearing to respond or takes longer than usual to perform actions, including shutting down or restarting. In fact, on those occasions I had to do a hard reset to get it all going again. Does anyone know if the card I'm using is perhaps defective, or maybe the native driver that is shipped with Windows 7 RC has issues which I hope will be fixed in the final version, which I've pre-ordered and will thus receive at the end of October. Please advise soon as I plan to buy the card off her tomorrow but don't wish to if the card appears defective.Thanks in advance. -- Chris Hallsworth E-mail: christopherh40@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx MSN: ch9675@xxxxxxxxxxx Skype: chrishallsworth7266 Klango: chrishallsworth ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
