Multicard reader problem

I am running a Compaq SR1620X system with windows XP SP3. This system has a built-in card reader. Recently the card reader SD and only in this player, has become completely disabled on the system somehow. It is no longer visible in 'My computer', but it is listed in the Manager of the computer with a red X through it. When I right click on it, the ability to turn off, and if I do that I can also enable however the system does not record the change of status. When you view the 'Safely Remove Hardware' the SD drive is there, but the generic volume which should also be included is not...

Also for some reason, the SM Bus controller now appears with a? which indicates that a driver for the system is missing.

The only recent change I made to my system was to install and then remove a sony Flash DRIVE fingerprint reader - who had nothing to do with it?

Any help would be great...

Tanks for the answer, but I was able to solve my dilemma...

What I did to remove the offending card of my computer Manager, and then drive comducted are looking for a Plug-and-Play hardware. The card reader has been reinstalled and it works very well...

As for the SM Bus controller question - I head to the site to download the latest driver - that should solve this...

  • Multicard reader W540 disappeared from the Device Manager

    I just got a brand-new W540, used the DVD that accompanies him to the level of W7 to W8 and then updated to W8.1. It works fine, but my integrated memory card reader doesn't seem to work. I tried to download the driver of multicard reader O2Micro W8.1 compatible web-support Lenovo, and he asked me if I wanted to repair or uninstall; to which I replied "fix." The process is finished, I rebooted upon request, but still the card reader does not. Or I see in Device Manager, and I did not all devices of unknown type or problems and manually install the driver (as existing device, using 'Have disk' etc) did not help.

    Searching on the Lenovo support web, I also found a Realtek driver multicard supposed to be done for the W540, but this does not work either. Both packs driver install without a hitch and lies in programs & applications after installation, but the rest useless memory card reader. I went straight for an OS update when I got the computer, I have no idea if the card reader used to work in Win 7 or vanilla 8 win, but I * think * I spotted under 'Storage controllers' before you try to install these packs pilot (but that could have been on another computer).

    Any ideas?

    As a last desperate resort, I ran an update BIOS and for some absurd reason the SD card reader on my works now W540.

  • Satellite X 200-HD - DVD reading problems

    Hello

    I recently acquired a Satellite X 200.
    I decided to upgrade to the latest drivers and applications available on the website of Dutch support.
    Since I now have my first HD-DVD player, I also bought the latest Harry Potter on HD - DVD.

    Reading with no upgrade did not work, so I've upgraded to the HD-DVD player more recent.
    Reading worked just fine now, but when I upgraded to all the other stuff (Broadcom decoder, drivers NVidia, etc.), reading crashes after a few seconds.
    I have now restored almost everything and I can replay the film very well, but of course I would really like to keep my drivers up-to-date. Anyone here with similar experiences and (hopefully) a solution?

    Another problem I have is when I plug in my TV via HDMI, playback stops.
    The TV is not HD, but can perfectly HD signals downsample. I have an XBox 360 connected that I've tested this with, but with the Toshiba, it just won't play.
    Again, all tips are welcome...

    Hello

    I suggest reinstall you the entire system and update your BIOS because it is possible that the software are somewhat overloaded or your system has too many things that probably isn't necessary.

    Especially the problem could probably be a corrupted driver then please try for example a display driver on the European driver download site, maybe better than the Dutch versions work.

    I guess the problem is somewhere in the search on the display drivers, since the question really looks like them.
    Is your X 200 a SLI machine? If this isn't the case, then you could try this site www.laptopvideo2go.com because they have more real pilots and they set up drivers for mobile system.

    Good luck

  • Satellite A35-S1593: DVD reading problem

    Hello.

    I have a SAT. A35 S1593. There a UJDA750 dvd/cdrw rom in it.
    I did some research about my problem, but I STILL can't get a direct answer from all the research Ive done. So... I come to you.

    I started to have problems playing DVDs. Now I can read at all. I can read burned CD and can burn CDs, I can even listen to CDs of reg with no problems.
    The problem is with the DVD. No matter what I do, other drivers, codecs, or firmware, I still have to make it work.

    What is c?
    Try to use the restore CD say you.
    Ive tried, and it will not read anything.
    The CD is good, I can put it in one of my other machines, and it will read.

    Frustrated and out of warranty, I thought I would load windows XP Pro on it, I thought that the worst case it would not read the CD either. ........
    I was wrong it read and load Win Xp on it. Hoping that just maybe Winxp fix it.

    Hell I couldn't put it to its original state as do I lose.
    What else can I do to get this drive working and restore it to its state of OEM.

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Ronn

    This seems to be a hardware problem.
    I would say that the lens of the drive cannot calibrate properly in the right position and so the DVD cannot be recognized.
    Each CD or DVD supports the different features and properties so the lens must calibrate to manage every single support.
    If this is not possible then the CD or DVD cannot be read or written

    Unfortunately, these failures occur due to the stress of the material and that replacement can help to solve these problems.

    Greetings

  • Satellite L300D-11 a - reader problem DVD and blue screen

    Hello

    I'm going out of my mind: o.

    My Satellite L300D-11 has been delivered with a Windows Vista Home Premium, but I recently did a clean installation of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.

    Since then, I have had problems with 'Blue error screen' come randomly. Bought and installed a registry clean program, but that did not fix the problem. Anyone else with this problem - and a possible solution.

    And now, my big problem. My CD and DVD drive crazy me; (o) it's a rug * a DVD-RAM UJ-850 s ATA and my internet research I found that many carpet * an owners have had the same or similar problems. My drive won't regonize or CD play/play. DVD with videos or programs, I can play. CD burning is not possible and DVD burning is sometimes work and other times not.

    I have read on different patches is displayed - also here on the Toshiba - not of the suggested solutions forum works for me - the new solutions I could try.

    Seriously think about buying a USB external DVD drive - but can be it someone please tell me why Toshiba does not get their B fingers * and find a solution as it sews Sony did it.

    I look forward to any reply; (o))

    Someone told me about this quote - "does not it was easier - works on getting smart! I need your help to get smart; (o))

    Hello

    I understand that it was ok with your laptop before installing Windows 7. It is so related to hardware problem software. Can you tell if it was original iso of windows 7 or the Assembly. Have you installed all the drivers for the Toshiba driver page and the maintenance of the right installation order? What burning software do use?

    Have you done this procedure mentioned in this forum:

    Go to Device Manager and remove the drive from the list of devices CD/DVD.
    Then access the registry and delete the Upperfilters and Lowerfilters completely from the following registry key values:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

    Reboot the laptop and wait for the CD/DVD drive would appear once again

    Answering these questions may help to understand your question.

  • On the Portege M800-11J SD card reader problems

    Hi all

    I hope that someone here will be able to help me with a problem. I have a new laptop Portege M800-11J and I try to use a 4 GB SD card in the embedded player. The laptop crashes and allow me to format the card or read. If I use a USB drive, it works without any problem.

    Through Google, I read that there may be problems with some drives and 4 GB cards.

    Anyone else has this problem or offer a solution? I did the driver regular re - installs etc.

    Thank you

    Adam

    What is an SD (FAT16)?

    Or is this a card SDHC (FAT32)?

    The M800 must be compatible with SDHC cards, so maybe it's a driver conflict. Or maybe the pins inside the drive is damaged and cause a short circuit.

    Have you updated the BIOS?

  • Qosmio F30 - 141 Memory Stick DUO / card reader problem

    I have a problem with the Memory Stick Duo Adapter/Memory stick PRO DUO card.
    Computer does not recognize volume. Unit Memory Stick appear in the system, but when I click on it in the Solution Explorer, computer say "insert the disk in drive E". I have the original card Memory Stick PRO DUO 2 gb and MS Duo adapter. 30 sec computer try plug this card.

    Computer properly operate with the Memory Stick Pro 1 GB card and Memory Stick M2 card 1 Gb with adapter M2.
    all this work cards in my Photo and on another computer.
    I am trying to connect this card to Sandisk 6 in 1 adapter PCMCIA, but in this case, no one card works.
    This device appear in IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers like '___Memory_Card_Adapter_II', but the driver for this device is not installed (KODe 28).

    Thanks for the wonderful world of the internet for this info:
    F30-141 does not support memory stick pro duo and adapters has not been tested.
    I'm afraid that also use adapters of doesn't help.

    I bought an external card reader. It s a small device and was very cheap and the best is that this external card reader takes in charge most of the maps ;)

  • Malfunction/M40 - 236 card reader problem

    Hello, we bought 2 m40 - 236 s, and both have the same problem: we put 'em out of the box and when an sd card is inserted in the card slot reader two computers laptops 'die '. Windows does not respond, led does not blink, cursor moves, but nothing works. This leads to the hard reset as nothing else is possible.

    I verifiued and there are no conflicts, the drivers are up to date... nothing has been changed/updated by me or my subordinates. So what's the problem? Let me remind you that 2 new laptops have the same problem.
    I used 2 different SD cards: kingston 512 MB and 256 MB kingston. The same effect. Please advise me on how to proceed.

    Hello Pawel

    It's very strange. This slot machine can read different SD/MS/MS Pro/SM/MMC and xD cards. Believe me on this path it is not easy to say what the problem is, but I assume that you didn't put the card in good standing (not directed). If the unit is pre-installed at the factory, it should work properly.

    Problem is that if you n t use this slot correctly, it can damage the circuits of s for laptop. In my opinion, you should check your SD cards with another unit and try again. Don't forget that the SD card is in the right position. If there is still the same situation your local dealer contact and let check it out them. If there is no serious problem, you must launch the drive with him.

    Good bye

  • Transfer to reader problems

    I, too, have problems with my transfer. I tried a number of things, including the removal of the driver (as suggested here), the reader to put in shape and reloading of books, uninstalling and reinstalling the software, player, deleting and reloading books etc. Here's the problem: I load books on my device in the player software. I open each book in the software of the device drive while it is connected to the computer. They all open very well and I can play them on my computer. I then unplug the unit. A circle with arrows appears, then I can read the device. At this point, 3 19 downloaded books are actually readable: they show the first page = 1 last page = 1 and give me an error message when I try to open them. The really frustrating part is that a book that was legible, when charged, will be not readable. I'm about to give up on this machine and I got for a month now!

    Just talked with Sony. Seems that the device only support a file type at a time: PDF or ePub. Therefore, everything I load first will prevent the other format of loading. I loaded three files PDF and ePub to rest. Now, I'll reformat the device and load the ePub first to see if it works. It is for the management of digital rights. Why is that Sony has this problem, but the meal is not?

  • HP Pavilion dv6 QJ916AAR: fingerprint reader problems

    Hello

    This is my first post so I apologize if it appears in the wrong place. I'll have a problem with the fingerprint reader and HP simple pass identity protection software that came with my Dv6-QJ916AAR. For some reason any all of a sudden since this morning it will not work. There is no light on the sensor, and it fails every time and movement. When I run the single pass software and go to the fingerprint section, it shows the fingerprint reader is not connected. Interestingly, when I go to Device Manager I see no biometric devices listed under there. I read on another thread that some options below biometic devices in Device Manager solves the problem.

    I already tried pass Simple uninstall/reinstall the Recovery Manager and also uninstalled and updated validity sensor but still no go.  Here are some other details:

    Laptop model: Dv6-QJ916AAR

    Operating system: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit

    I can't find any other information on how to solve it. Can anyone help?

    Thank you!

  • [w530] Fingerprint reader problems

    For some reason any my ringerprint player has stopped working. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the driver, software, and done pretty much everything I can find online.

    In Device Manager, it is usually, but sometimes doesn't. In Control Panel > biometric devices, it appears less frequently, usually only after I clicked "scan for material changes.

    Someone at - it suggestions? Could this be a hardware problem?

    Thank you

    Chris.

    Hey Chris... I had a similar problem with the reader of fingerprints on my W530 a month ago. He has stopped responding at times. the control on this LED flashing sometimes and sometimes it wouldn't. Drivers and software is up to date.

    I tried literally everything under the Sun to eliminate any software problem. Could not work.

    It turned out to be a hardware problem.

    Call Lenovo and sunglasses rest palm spare part. The entire Palm must be replaced if it is not too difficult a task.

    See you soon.
