Another 5-in-1 Media Card Reader Question, ZV6000 series

I have a Pavillion ZV61000 ()PN494AV) who works fantastic for the last 4 years.  I recently upgraded to 2 1gig RAM and installed a new drive hard and so re-loaded XP Professional from the "recovery" disk supplied with the laptop.

I was at HP Total Care and updated all the drivers and to update.microsoft.com to update the drivers even more.

However, the only thing that doesn't seem to work is built in the 5-in-1 card reader.  On the SD (2 giga) SD card, it wants me to format and when I try, he then refuses to format the card and my HP from my DSLR 4Gig SD card, will not show in my computer.   Shows Device Manager everything works fine.

Today, I went to HP.com and downloaded the driver suggested sp30714.exe ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp30501-31000/sp30714.exe and installed without success.

I read everywhere on the internet where people are having the same problems with their readers of meda 5-in-1 of a regenerating of the lines of portable Pavilion.

All I know, for me, the drive worked fine until I reloaded XP and having to assume the driver is bad or out of date.  However, none of those from HP.com or Microsoft seem to work either.  Cards (both the 2and 4 gig) are legible on the laptop USB external drives, so I can assume that this is not a problem recognition SD card, but rather a physical card or software reading number for the built-in player and because the drive worked very well under the original XP installation, I have to assume this is a problem of software between Windows and the drive so a pilot of the question.

I searched the Forum, and that some problems are similar that they were not my particular model of HP and I don't know if this is a factor in the resolution of the problem.

Any other suggestions?

Solved!

Found this solution and although I do not have these models of laptops, once I downloaded the patch and installed, 4Gig cards were suddenly readable.

DIFFICULTY for HP 5-in-1 incompatibility.

I hope this helps others.

  • Media card reader problem

    The green light on my media player is constantly on, because he thinks that there is a card in there. It is causing all sorts of problems with my PC. I did search back issues with media card on the forum readers to find a solution. The closest solution to you, that I could find is below.

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/PSG/board/message?board.ID=HardwareDPC&message.ID=5888&query.ID=211647#M58...

    I tried to put the card in and out with no luck. I restarted the PC with no luck. I tried to disable and re activate each in Device Manager. The solution to the issue I found suggested that uninstall all the different reading devices and restart. Someone at - it any other suggestions on how I should approach this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hello

    Thank you for your response. Sorry for the lack of information in my post. In fact, I have corrected the issue last night. What I did get another sd card and insert that into the card reader. Then, I went through Explorer and clicked on, safely remove and it worked. I think that the problem could be with the previous card is not removed correctly, or that the other card was causing problems for some reason any.

    Thanks again for your help,

  • Dell XPS 8900 media card reader write protected: how to remove the protection?

    I use the card reader to write mp3 files on a micro-SD card to use in a small MP3. Until today, no problem. Now I get the error 'write protected' - and it is not because of the tab in the adapter SD being in the wrong position.

    There were a few quirks days when card readers are presented as explicit readers in this PC, but this phenomenon disappeared when I restarted the computer. I suspect that this may be related.

    Advice as to how do these ports without protection would be appreciated. Meanwhile, Plan B, using a to a USB external card reader works.

    Also: Run Windows 10 as originally installed on the computer.

    The outcome: diskpart approach after trying and failing, I decided to try canned air in the slot for the fourth time (this is what I did the first time that the crack would not read and later that day).

    This time I gave him a dose really long and deep air under pressure. And voila, he now writes and reads.

    Sorry to take all this space on what turned out be a non-issue, or should have been.

    I have three other computers with media slots, two of them for close to three years, and no one has posted this question - as in my XPS 8900 after only three weeks of minimal use of niche.

    Guess never say never is a good adage.

  • The Multi Media Card reader does not work on M30X-128!

    I have some problems with the MMC card reader on my M30X 128: i.e. SONY Memory Stick is regularly recognized as plugged into the slot, I can see it in the taskbar windows at the bottom of the screen and I can also remove it safely, but it does not appear in 'my computer resources such as he has done in the past.
    I already tried to remove and reinstall the drivers, but without success.
    Is there anyone who can help me?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    have you tried to use the memory stick in another computer? The problem is perhaps on the stick not on the drive.

    If the memory stick is OK, I think that you need to restore the system with the recovery CD.

    Good bye

  • Media card reader disappears from leading to the card not being recognized under computer

    Original title: two years with media player card hardware/software problem?

    When I insert my card player media the G, H, I and J readers disappear which leads to the card is not recognized. If I completely shut down my computer, they come back and the card will read for this session. This does not happen if I do a simple reboot. My computer is not quite two years old and it lasts since almost the beginning. Dell has replaced once the card reader and cable three times and the motherboard. The last technician who came to me thinking that it might be a software Bus USB error. All drivers have been updated. I am at my wits end, because the problem does not happen whenever I inserted the card, but now, it happens more frequently. This problem seems to occur with the map of media player. And Yes, it happens with all Media Player cards. I mainly use this computer to upload photos. I was told NOT to back up my computer because, if it was a software problem I just would be to reinstall the problem once I did a restore. Is there someone out there who can help?

    Hi Chris,

    I was finally brave enough to install the updates of the firmware. I went from the 7.8 version version 7.12, but no luck. Initially, it worked, but once my computer came into fashion 'sleep', and I returned to use again, it didn't work. This has been a problem for almost all the time that I owned the computer. Very very frustrating!

    Any other suggestions, anyone?

    Thank you

  • XPS 8700 Media Card Reader does not appear anywhere

    I have an 8700 old XPS to a month that is upgraded to win 8.1 (64-bit).  I tried to use the card reader for the first time yesterday with no success.  No indication after you have inserted an SD card (I tried 2), nothing in the file Explorer.  No obvious entry in Device Manager stating the existence of the device.  No HW in Device Manager, indicating problems of HW.  Any ideas other than opening the box to see if it is connected?   Bailey05

    Had the same problem with xps8700, win8.1.  Reference called Dell.  Were told to stop, unplug the machine, hold the power button for 15 seconds, then restart.  Worked like a charm!  Has been said that it is because the static load on the card reader.  Don't know if that's true, but the fix worked! Easy!

  • BlackBerry smartphone APP WORLD vs MEDIA CARD Coupla Questions...

    So... I downloaded appworld and didn't get a few decent applications... works great... no probs at all...

    Which leads to the question...

    I have a 2 GB card inserted... and would like to know how to move some of the apps on the home screen

    and to run them without any problem... and do it safely.

    My phone memory decreases fast enough that I added new applications in of appworld.

    ~ and I deleted via the DM progs that I don't no need... or ever intend to use...

    It would be great if I can move ALL the apps that I use on a memory card... I do not know that the phone would go very quickly then......

    So... Is this possible?

    And finally ~

    I love my 9500 BBStorm far... he had since February... No probs, but I miss WLAN and Skype...

    They will be available for the storm updates...? I was wondering...

    Kind regards...

    Mike

    Hello!

    There are three types of potential memory on a BB: 1) application memory, the device memory) 2 and 3) Media/SD memory card

    Application memory - it is the most important; It is protected (not available to the user), dedicated and (fixed size) space as the destination for the installation of applications (more a few storage applications, overhead and other costs). You can't touch AppMemory. You cannot improve the maximum AppMemory that your BB has. It is what it is. Applications can install only here... There is no other choice.

    The device memory - it is space on your BB you can touch these files, images, media, etc. In general, it is not very big, but it is available.

    Memory card SD/Media - is what it says... your SD card to store files, media, photos, etc.. It can be as large as your BB OS can support... see this KB:

    On some devices/OS levels, enforcement and the memory of the device are combined into "free file"... This is, IMO, a little more difficult to administer that you can't see really how AppMemory you have. Nevertheless, here are some tips to use:

    In addition, it is always important to correctly close applications when you are finished with them. Using the back or on the red button won't do that - those leave the app to decide what to do... and some let themselves memory-resident, consumes resources on your BB, slowing down the overall performance. Rather, to close an application, press the BBKey and select 'Farm' or 'Quit'... that forces the application to be closed, freeing for your new use the resources it consumed. Some applications will always be running (in general - BBMessenger, browser, homescreen, phone and Messages)... but, you should always close them properly - especially the browser... If we leave on a web page, it will not consume only additional resources, but the power of the battery as well.

    Finally, there are some utilities available (including AppWorld) which will "store" apps on your SD card... but they never will 'run' from there. What do these utilities is to uninstall the application (sometimes called 'archive') of AppMemory and keep it stored elsewhere. When you want the application, it will be installed again to AppMemory from this location of archive and then deleted again when you are done with it. Awkward, but given the nature preserved the basic architecture of BB and AppMemory, it's the best possible currently.

    Regarding WLAN and SKYPE - you will need to check with these developers to see what their plans are.

    Hope that helps!

  • Satellite M45: Smart Media Card Reader SD does not

    Hello

    I have a Satellite M45, computer laptop, and for some reason any SD Smart Media system does not work. The Bay is attached to the laptop, it is not an external drive. I insert the chip SD, 1 GB or 512 mb not load disc, it, or show no signs of him being even in the computer.

    However, I see a blue light next to the Bay that happens when I plug a disk in it. But it reads nothing for some reason any. I tried already (repeatedly) to re - install the drivers, and then restart the computer, but nothing happens I get the same bad thing.

    You have and suggestions or ideas that might solve this problem of mine.

    Hello

  • CARD READER USB FOR DESKTOP HP PAVILION 500 - C60?

    I have a new 500 - C60 HP Pavilion desktop computer, but the front card reader does not accept the largest flash Compact Flash (CF) card.  I have an old USB multi-card with four different card slots, which accepts the card see  Would this setting work satisfactorly?

    Thank you

    shamrock838

    Hello @shamrock838,

    I understand that your desktop HP Pavilion 500 - c60 PC does not support the biggest Compact Flash Memory Card and you are curious as to whether or not you can install an USB multicard Reader which accepts the memory card see First of all, you have reason 7 - in1 media card reader did it installed does not supported CF memory card, but it supports the following cards:

    • Digital safe™ (SD)
    • Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC)
    • SDXC
    • Memory Stick
    • Memory Stick Select
    • Memory Stick PRO
    • Memory Stick MagicGate

    I don't see why you can't connect the 4 - in1 USB multicard reader you have. Until the operating system detects and installs, you should be fine.

    I hope that I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

    Hello

    I use card Memory Stick Pro Duo high speed with my cam, but, as far as I know, it cannot be used with multicard reader directly, but perhaps with Memory Stick adapter. Please consult the manuals s document and you will find the list of all supported cards.

    To be honest I have Memory stick adapter but A200/P200 still doesn't properly recognize the card.

    So the question is: do you also use the adapter or not?

  • Satellite U920T - SD card reader error

    Toshiba U920T BSOD error and Windows 8.1 card reader

    Whenever I do a scan operation, the Format, copy or Delete on my internal SD card I get this error.
    KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED or FAT_FILE_SYSTEM,

    I have tested everything, all the drivers are updated, and it happens even with laptop in safe mode.

    I even experimented with SD card formatted in Fat32, exFat and NTFS.

    This happens with the internal drive, if I use an external SD card reader connected to USB, isn´t there is no problem, so there is no physical problem with the maps.

    I use 2 SD, one of the other with 32 GB and 128GB.

    If it is inserted 32 GB, I'm doing a drive > properties > scan and comes the BSOD saying FAT_FILE_SYSTEM without number

    128 GB inserted, I do a scan and comes the BSOD saying KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED no number

    Someone has an idea or my internal card reader must ensure?

    It seems that the internal SD card reader does not support the cards inserted correctly.
    According to the specifications of the laptop (user manual), the card reader supports SD, SDHC and SDXC cards card.
