Micro SD problem

I have a memory card for my phone. So I put it in my micro SD adapter and i
put it into my computer. Nothing pops up, and I search and can't find my
memory card on the computer. Before when I had XP this worked fine, but now
with vista it doesn't. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this or where to
find it?

Re: Micro SD problem

does the card reader show in device manager?
check properties for it.
make sure auto-detect, notify is checked.

Re: Micro SD problem

What would it be called in the device manager?
Where is auto-detect?

Re: Micro SD problem

Generally the card reader will show as a removable drive.
Mine show in My Computer as drive G H I J.
I just looked at my card reader, there is no auto notify option.
Since the card reader(s) are already installed, you won't get a new hardware
prompt.
SD cards don't usually act like a CD/DVD and tell you when they are
inserted.
Once you put a SD card in, just open the drive that it is in and you should
see your files.

Re: Micro SD problem

Well, I can't find the driver that it is in. Under disk drives, 1 of them
says: Generic- SD/MMC USB Device. Is that the one? If so, how do I open it or
find it?

Re: Micro SD problem

If your micro SD card is an SD/HC type it may not work in older SD card
readers. Also, if you have a network drive attached as a drive letter
sometimes Windows attempts to use the same letter for SD card reader. You
can tell if thats happening by going into control panel, System &
maintenance, administrative tools, and double clicking on Computer
Management. This will show you all the physical disk drives (hdd, optical,
flash etc) and their assigned drives letters, which you can adjust if it
clashes with a network drive. You could just re-assign a new drive letter
for the network drive also.
