    The SD card slot on my inspirion 1520 is broken. When I attempt to insert the card (I have two which both work in cameras), the sd card does not click into place like it should, then allowing me to press it in again to release it. It instead goes in and comes back out.

    I can get windows to make the sound that acknowledges that there is an SD card, however it will not show me/read the sd card.

    Any ideas on how this was broken or how to fix it?

    EDIT: Fixed problem. Reinstalled driver.
