    Hi guys

    I have this Qosmio laptop which comes with a built-in multi card reader for SD, MS, and xSD. For some reason, I can't read Memory Stick but fine with the other two. When I insert the memory stick into the slot, it will say my computer has finished installing the driver and need to restart. After restarting, I put in the card again and now it detects it and show as a new drive in explorer. However, when I click on this drive, it says "Please insert a disk in drive x:". :(

    does anyone know how to solve this problem? I downloaded the newest driver for this and still it doesn't help.

    Thanks.

    I actually have them replaced the motherboard FOC when my Qosmio didn't start up. Now everything runs fine except the fan is very noisy and starts running whenever i power up my laptop. Very annoying I must say. Together with the inability to read memory stick, I think I will call them up and see what they can do for me.

    I really regret getting a Qosmio.
