    Okay, so my nice new Vostro 1500 came with a card reader. That's great... except I can't figure out for the life of me how an SD card is supposed to work in there! I tried to put my Canon SD card into the slot, and it "ate" it, and I had to get a couple of paper clips to get the thing out. The manual says that the SD card will work, but I don't see how. Do you need some kind of special adapter?

    Push the card in until it clicks in place. It should show up in windows explorer. When you are done, make sure you click on the taskbar icon to safely remove it. After it says okay, push the card in and release. It will pop back out.
