right click my comp, then properties, then the hardware tab, then device manager, then click the thing for search for new hardware.

ok this worked but i dident do anything for me i click on it and it gives me like "properties" for the stick and i i still cant find it if im in word or powerpoint.

toyotakid · 02-09-2006, 08:08 PM

hmm... well that's the extent of my help, cause i've never worked with a computer with a built in card reader. try a google search for some help.

good luck.

right click 'my computer'

drag down to 'manage'

click on disk management...........do you see a volume with roughly 250 megs of storage? Is it assigned to a drive letter? if not -- right click on it, 'change drive letter and path'

give it any drive letter....

if none of that works or you don't see it in the disk management window, report back here

if you do see it showing up on your PC under my computer, you might need to format it? i dont know, but i had to format the one i bought for my digital camera before it would recognize it

but honeslty i don't think that's normal
