    Hi, all. I recently got a T400 and it's been good to me until I tried to get it to read my 8GB SDHC card. Nothing happened when I put it in and the little light on the side which I presume will turn on when the device recognizes a flash card did not turn on.

    I'm running Windows 7 and the device manager sees the device just fine.

    I've (re)installed the Windows 7 version of the latest Ricoh drivers (3.64.02) both from downloading from the website and through the Thinkpad Update utility.

    Still, it remains nonreactive. :(

    Do you guys have any ideas on the problem or anything else I should try?
    Should I try an Ubuntu LiveCD like I've read in other threads?
