    Hi, I am a little bit confused with the SD/MMC on my Sony CW series.

    When I look at my computer, there are 2 SD/MMC Drives and 1 Memory Stick Drive.

    Also, when I look at System device, it mentions also 2 SD/MMC Drives with 1 MS Drive.

    Both SD/MMC are on F and G Drives.

    When I insert SD Card, it goes to G drive, the same thing happens when I insert MMC, it also goes to G drive.

    What is the F drive then?

    Does anybody know about this?

    Thanks

    Have you tried using both? Do you have a USB drive plugged in? Maybe it's your DVD drive?

    Exactly what I was thinking. I think one drive is set aside for the SDHC or SDXC cards that are of higher capacity, that are not readable by the regular SD card driver. Insert an SDHC and I bet you it'll mount to F.
