    Mini SD Card Reader - tells me to format


    Details,

    Just moved to W7 from XP. I have everything working - except my USB Mini SD Card reader.

    I have a Cyclo DS card and have been accessing the card - no problem through XP. The card is formatted as a FAT32 (as required).

    When I put it in with W7 - it tells me that I have to format it first.

    The obvious solution is to copy everything using an XP installation and then format.

    I just wanna know why doesn't it work?

    TIA

    I'm having the same problem. Bought a new Gateway desktop from Tiger direct and as it was refurbished i thought it was possibly a setting - but haven't found anything that in any way will affect it.

    If this is Window's 7 problem I would love to see a solution. It's embarassing to have this wonderful computer that should be able to read any disk format and have to go to the front desk to get a card reader any time I need to download pics and the agent hasn't brought a cable.

Hello, all. Last week I found out that my computer wouldn't boot. I was trying to do system restore, it said it was complete but it wasn't moving. So, then I turned the computer off. After that, Windows 7 (or 8) wouldn't start up. :shock: I've searched a few different websites, and I read...
