    im having problems reading cards in my built in reader. i have a micro sd card in an adapter and another sd card, when i place in the reader it shows up in my computer, but when i click on it it says to insert card. Ive checked for driver updates but everything seems to be up to date. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    What capacity card and which operating system? Also, what is the card reader hardware?
    Microsoft recently issued a patch for XP to support capacities >4GB.
