Aloha all. I posted this before, but missed the answers...sorry.
I have a Card Reader in my computer. It reads 9 different types
of memory cards. I use SD, 1GB cards. When I put them in they are read fine,
but whenever I try to write to the card I am told the card is write
protected. It is not. I have the tab in the correct position...have tried in
both ways. Nothing I can do to get the system to see the card as
unprotected.
What can I do?
Thanks!

Sometimes reinstalling the motherboard driver support fot the card reader
helps.
Uninstall it from device manager
reboot and reinstall the driver when the device is detected.

How do I know which driver is for the card reader? Under Hardware/Device
Manager, it just shows Intel ICH8 Family USB Universal Host controller (7 of
them), and USB Root Hub (again 7), but doesn't identify the Card Reader.
Thanks.
