    Hi all,

    I just got an 8GB Kingston SDHC and it works just fine on my Asus Eee PC 900. However, when I inserted the card into the XPS M1530 built-in media reader, nothing happened. No sound or "New hardware" found pops-up. Going to explorer doesn't show anything.

    So is the XPS M1530 can NOT read SDHC card or I need to install some driver?

    Thanks.

    You are lucky that is all you needed, with my old laptop I had to rig drivers as my reader would not handle regular SD above 1 GB, that was fun. Good luck.
