    I have an Inspiron E1705 and my memory card reader just suddenly stopped working. In my device manager it says that my device is there.. 'SDA Standard Compliant SD Host Controller' And it says its working properly. SHould i uninstall the driver and try intalling it back? OR does anyone know where i can get the driver? BEcause it worked fine before then all of a sudden it just stopped working, and its not my memory card because i've tried more than one. Thanks.

    Try cleaning it a little? Blast some compressed air through air and see if it helps. All the more so if you don't keep a blank in there.
