    I am going to purchase a SDHC 4gb SD card. Only problem is I read that many card readers cannot read this format.

    Does anyone know if the card reader built into the Acer 5920 can read this card? If not, maybe there is a firmware update that enables these cards to be read?

    It it cannot, I will probably stick to 2gb cards for the time being.

    I've got a sandisK 4 giga micro SDHC, and I can't get it to work,not with the sd adapter, nor with the micromate usb adapter.Vista doesn't recognize any of them.

    anybody got a good link for the sandisk driver ??

    Yes it is. Posted by acer on feb 15th 2008

    EDIT: The driver from the link e30sep11 posted is also 3.52.02 (check setup.ini). Since they are the same, I would get the driver from the trusted source ;)
