    Windows explorer stopped detecting SD Card - Windows 7.


    Up until recently Windows explorer automatically detected an sd card when inserted in the card reader. However now it won't detect it. It does autmatically detect a USB drive inserted into the usb slot on the same hardware. I have ruled out a hardware issue by booting from other windows 7 drives on my machine and both times the sd card is detected by Windows explorer. I have tried checking the driver for the flash reader on the problematic hard drive and it says it is working properly. Is there a fix for this without reinstalling windows 7?

    Now just as a by the by I had a similar issue a while ago with my USB and card ports not working and it turned out to be an issue with the Samsung Magician because I run SSD's uninstalling the Samsung software cured it straight away so are you running it or other software that maybe interfering with the SD card operation?
