Cured my SD Card "write protected when switch is right" problem
Hi all!
I joined this forum the other day because I found it useful in trouble shooting problems that I had when restoring my households 3 computers that were rootkit controlled.
Anyway, wanted to say thanks in general, because info I used to help me was all through these forums.
So I cured one of my problems myself, when no matter where I looked on the web there was no solution.
My old pavilion has a SD reader that suddenly was calling EVERY sd card write protected. Well, I made sure the locking switch was NOT on write protect, yet no matter what SD card I used, it always said this.
Long story short, after not finding ANY solution that worked on the web, I decided right before I was about to give up, to take an air compressor and blow the crap out of the slot...
It worked! Must have been some dust or something in the right place at the wrong time, but blowing out the slot cleared it up and it works like new.
cheers!
