    I have a SZ340 and running Vista ultimate...The memory card DUO slot has a 2 gig card in, sometimes it works and most of the time it does not. I am not sure what is wrong. I use it for readyboost. Can someone tell me which drive to reinstall to try and fix?

    Thanks

    I think it's sadly just a Vista bug....you can try just removing it and pushing it back in. That always seems to fix the problem for me.

    Also what is your card formatted as? I noticed it works better as FAT than FAT32 or NTFS.

    How do you notice that it isn't working? I have a SZ460 with a 2GB card for ReadyBoost but I don't know how to verify it's working other than to periodically check the Properties on the drive.
