Vista SP2 not recognizing not not SD card with the external drive

I have a Dell PC running Vista SP2 32 bit, and I just bought a card reader IOGear (GFR204SD, USB key with slots for SD/MicroSD cards). With the help of one of my Android devices micro SDHC cards (both brand Sandisk 16GB, I have a Droid and a tablet of Sanyo), this USB drive will not be detected, but when I click on the icon that appears in my computer, it just says "Please insert disk into drive h:" even if the card is inserted. Cards read very well if I mount them by the smartphone, but not on this device. The IOGear online chat person was no help for me until my connection has been lost, and before I asked them once again, I thought I would see if it was a Vista problem.

Every search I did shoot a lot Info for XP or SP1, but not to SP2. And in Device Manager there is no yellow triangle exclamation the device seems to settle but the card itself does not seem to be save.

See this article if this can help:

  • Qosmio G40 - not more healthy with the last driver audio Realtek

    Hi all!

    Whenever I have install the latest audio driver Realtek 6.1.0.53.97 on my Qosmio G40 (Vista), the sound not work more (not at all) so I don't have to return to the previous version.

    Has anyone noticed this problem or has an explanation?

    Thank you.

    Louglitou.

    Hello

    It's not easy to say why you n t get the noise after the update of the audio driver, but in my view, this problem may appear if a problem occurs during the installation/update procedure.
    But I have two questions;
    Why do you want to update the audio driver? You have sound problems?
    I think that if your sound is ok so an update is not necessary, I noticed that the Realtek audio drivers are updated from time to time. My audio driver is about 3 years old and I didn't update because it works very well.

    Best regards

  • Reduces my available space on the C drive and I do not have anything with the C drive.

    My computer laptop drive C space available decreases when I don't do anything with the C drive.  Why?  Sometimes the amount of available space decreases again, and return.

    Hi Colwich Campbell,

    First of all, I would say that you run the tool on the computer disk cleanup and check if it works.

    1. open Disk Cleanup by clicking the Start button, all programs, Accessories, clicking System Tools, and then click Disk Cleanup.
    2. in the Disk Cleanup Options dialog box, choose whether you want to clean your own files only or all files on the computer. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    3. If the Disk Cleanup: drive Selection dialog box appears, select the hard disk you want to clean and then click OK.
    4. click the Disk Cleanup tab and select the check boxes for files that you want to remove.
    5. When you have finished select the files you want to delete, click OK, and then click on delete files to confirm the operation. Disk Cleanup on delete all unnecessary files from your computer.

    We can also analyze your computer for any malware or virus infection, and check if it works.

  • 100 GB Vista full boot need to merge with the E drive.

    I have vista, my startup diskc: disk is full Iwant to merge the e drive?

    100 GB full Vista, 1 disk boot hard need to merge with the E drive part.  HOW?

    Hello

    What is the size of the E:Drive?

    E: drive may be the recovery disk to reinstall the OS, if there is between 5-15GBs.

    Do not touch, except to make the recovery of the disks.

    Here is the info on the recovery disks >

    Your recovery Partition was photographed on your hard drive during the production of your computer by the manufacturer for all of these reasons.

    1. to reinstall Vista from in the case of a failure of the system, based on individuals or the keys at startup.

    F10 or Alt + F10 or F11 are a couple of different manufacturers use sequences.

    You will need to ask your manufacturer for proper sequence.

    2. to make the recovery disks on if your drive hard breaks down, so that you can then reinstall the operating system on a new hard drive.

    Also ask them how to make records.

    Your D: or E: drive of recovery should not be used for backups, defragmented, etc..

    There are backups on an external hard drive.

    To resolve the problems that have arisen with the recovery D: Partition, you will need to contact the manufacturer of your computer to remove all that has been added to it.

    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

    If E: is not the recovery disc, with disc of Vista management you must use all the space of the E: drive, doesn't not part of the E:.

    See if this applies to your situation.

    Save all data on E: > E: remove > and then extend C: into the now unallocated space where E: was.

  • Window Vista Ultimate 2007 backup files empty on the external drive.

    The computer is a desktop HP running Windows Vista Ultimate 2007, 32 Bit OS, RAM 400 GB and Intel Quad CPU 2 .4GHz.

    I ran Windows Vista backup for a full backup and a backup of the file.  When I look at the external disk to verify the backup files are empty.  There are two created on the external hard drive, but both files are empty.  The program indicates that the backup routine successfully on the external drive. I have not received any error message.

    I use a Toshiba external drive with 500 + GB.  I have a lot of room.  I tried twice.  The first time I reformatted the external drive using Windows and revived the full backup only.  Once again the image file on the external drive shows 0 bytes, 0 files.

    I wonder why the backup files are not getting moved on the external drive.

    Hi BEM Consult,.

    1. are you allowing Windows to choose recommended backup or you choose "Let me pick" option on the backup configuration window?

    We recommend that you connect the external hard drive on another computer and check if the size of the backup file is in the list.

    Check if you have selected all the items in the backup settings to create a backup file. Try to create a new backup file by selecting all items on the Backup Wizard and check the result.

    The Vista installation disc is a DVD. Apparently, you don't have a DVD player. You would need to purchase/install a DVD-ROM or DVD - RW to install Vista. Are you sure that your hardware supports Vista before doing this?

    Even if a minimum of 1 GB, the requirements in the real world Vista requires a minimum of 2 GB of RAM to run without problem. You will also need Vista drivers for all your hardware.

  • My Satellite A100 does not support SDHC cards with the internal card reader

    Hello

    My Satellite A100 can't stand my sandisk 4 GB SDHC.
    'normal' SD cards are not a problem with the internal card reader, and there is no problem with the 4 GB sandisk SDHC card using an external card reader.

    is there a software solution?

    regrads,
    Itock

    I don't have the time to read the manuals for your model of laptop users, but can be registered to all supported cards. I guess SDHC not registered and not supported.

    I don't know what you mean with the software solution, but as far as I know, update for multimedia card reader is not available.

  • Windows Vista does not start upward, with success since the closure complete

    Hello world

    I actually had this problem for a long time, but I'm just now to a point where I'm ready to take a lead in fixing it.

    I can't identify when it started, but Windows Vista does not start upward, with success of a full stop. He gets to the screen where, in general, the green bars will travel across the screen, but the green bars will not come. The screen looks dim and sits there, with the text of the copyright of Microsoft Corporation. So, after not having on the mound, I have to manually shut down the computer by holding down the power button. When I try to start again, told me to go through the Startup Repair tool. If I jump the repair, I just have to meet the same problem - a computer that will not go beyond the screen "green bar".

    So, I do the Startup Repair, and told me what I do for the restoration of the system. Windows starts normally after the restoration.

    Don't forget, this happens from a full stop. To remedy this, I just never completely shut down my computer. I left running and back just at the beginning of the day. The computer may start restart, it just may not start with a full stop.

    Given the start of repair takes, literally, around 4 or 5 hours of full stops complete, accidental or power outages are a nightmare, I am obliged to wait 5 hours to get access to the computer. Fortunately, I have my laptop.

    If someone has encountered this? I saw people talking about the loop of startup repair, but that's not the point, I have. I have yet to see any discussion of my specific problem.

    Thanks in advance!

    If the window of Autorun from your computer... just close it.

    Click the project settings button and check... Video /.

    Please wait while the DVD is created.

    When the text "Completed successfully" is displayed you
