Enforcer57 Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 I just love this crap. I use my camera card readers pretty rregularly in my computer, but when i put my xd card from my olympus camera in to dnload some pix to my hard drive, and it wasnt showing up. When i used that little arrow looking thingy in the task bar at the bottom to try and check on it, I somehow made all my card drives disapear. they wont even light up the little green light now and they dont show up in "my computer". I think they show up in device manager, but it says everything is enabled, but they arent. What the hell have I done, and how can i get my card readers back in service? That is all. Thank you.Im going to bed now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBloke Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Have you done a reboot and checked if they are still missing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBloke Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 I'm just hoping he gets it fixed for the next installment of artistic photographs of birds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enforcer57 Posted December 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Whew......OK, that worked. I just checked and they are all there, and even the I drive which holds XD olympus cards is showing up again. Man this computer freaks me out sometimes.....about like dealing with damn women; totally inconsistent, illogical, and bewildering. Thats why I come to my buds in the outfit. If I get some good shots of these chicks, Ill post some.......I did get some cleavage here and there. God I love that. Im working on em and turning on the charm, so maybe Ill have some better stuff later. My employment seems to be a target rich environment for a photographer. Much potential.

BBloke Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Card Readers tend to be USB driven and can connect directly to the motherboard. From there you'd need to check either inside the machine and check its connections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
