    Hey all,

    Hope you can help me in this one, i have 2 sd cards that my laptop cant read, when i put them into the built in card reader it pops up as an sd card but when i double click on it it says "please insert disk into drive e".

    I use one card for my camera and the other one for my girls wii, so i know they are fine and working ok. I have had this problem before but for the life of me i cant remember what i did. I might have done a system restore but doesnt work this time.

    I have uninstalled the sd card drivers and then put the sd card back into the laptop and it installs the drivers again and have the same problem.

    Cheers in advance..

    Greetings - are the cards SD or SDHC? SDHC can only be read by Vista or XP with SP3 (or download the SDHC patch from M$ for XP SP2). Hope this helps...
