    So I finally decided to try out the actual ricoh card reader on my dv9000t and I find the driver version is the generic microsoft one dating back to 2001. I upgrade it with the drivers on the HP site but it still shows as the 2001 driver. Is this normal? if not then how do I get the HP ones? tried uninstalling, tried reinstalling, i even tried the vista ones (which gave me a BSOD) but nothing works, even choosing upgrade driver and pointing to the SWSetup ricoh folder didnt work (couldnt find a driver).
