I have vista clean installed. Recently I put a fine 1G SD card into the
internal card reader on my ACER TM370 laptop. Vista recognized it, installed
drivers, and than I saw a new "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers" -- "RICOH SD/MMC
Controller" in the Device Manager, a new removable disk icon appear in "My
Computer", everything seems all right.

But when I open it by clicking icon, a pop window told me "Access is
denied". Its property is also abnormal -- 0bytes free.

Could u give me possible solutions? It was just quite strange because Vista
only add in device manager a new "IDE controller" but no new "Disk drivers".
We know Vista would do it for a usb flash driver!

Thanks u.

Hi i also had this problem for ages. After much persistence, i finally
managed to get around it. I had to turn off "User Access Control" from
the Control Panel (you know that annoying thing that keeps asking you
to confirm if you want to do stuff that requires elevated privileges?).
You need to go to Control Panel-->User Accounts and then its in here
somewhere (can't remember). You will need to reboot after making the
change.

Disabling UAC can lead to other problems. See...

yeah i don't recommend doing it permanently - just so you can get your
pics.
