SD Card not being read
MonkeyBusiness
09-08-2007
I have a 1GB SanDisk SD Card, and after taking some pictures yesterday with my camera, I popped the card into the computer and got no response at all. I've tried to find a way of viewing the files through My Computer and whatnot, but can't seem to find any sign of its existence while in the SD slot.

Anybody have any suggestions? The SanDisk site wasn't much help and I've not been able to google up a solution either.

Cheers in advance.

You are running Windows XP? When you plug the card in, does it get recognised - New hardware found, etc..

Yeah, on XP. Card goes in, but absolutely nothing happens. Not recognised. Usually a list of options automatically pops up asking what I want to do - view files in Explorer, burn files onto cd, etc.

So is it just this particular SD card that you have problems with, or is it any SD card?

I use a programme called Picasa2 to download all my digital
pictures from camera directly onto pc-am running XP!
The programme is free-loads beautifully and has facilities that all but an expert will find adequate!
I came by it via the Daily Telegraph Tech site-a site well worth visiting!
Can find it here-of special interest is the 'Bootcamp Archive'-explains highly complex things in lay man terms!
