  5. Insert the compact flash card.
  6. the computer does not recognize removable storage (that is, it is not assigned a drive letter and does not appear in disk management).

  The only way I can get windows to recognize the drive is to restart my computer. How can I get windows recognize the drive without having to reboot?   This problem does not occur with USB flash drives.

  UPDATE (04/03/2010):
  I have more information, I hope this helps to reach a solution.

  -J' repeated the steps above 1 to 3, with open Device Manager.  In step 3, in the Device Manager window, the icon for the question USB mass storage device becomes the exclamation point in yellow triangle icon.  Check its properties on the tab "General", in the "Device status" box, it says: "Windows cannot use this hardware device because it has been established for"safe removal", but it has not been removed from the computer. (Code 47)  IX this problem, disconnect the device from your computer and then reconnect it.  Click on 'Search for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available. »
  -J' then removed the card and rest of the error state.
  -J' I re inserted the card, and rest of the error state.
  -J' I then tried to update the driver by accessing the tab "driver", click on "Update driver", click on "Automatically search for an updated driver", and the result was "the best driver for your device is already installed."

  Some excerpts...
