Table C-4 Solving Media Card Reader Problems (continued)
Unable to access data on the media card after inserting it into a slot.
Cause
The media card is not inserted properly, is inserted in the wrong
slot, or is not supported.
Do not know how to remove a media card correctly.
Cause
The computer's software is used to safely eject the card.
After installing the media card reader and booting to Windows, the reader and the inserted cards are not recognized
by the computer.
Cause
The operating system needs time to recognize the device if the
reader was just installed into the computer and you are turning
the PC on for the first time.
After inserting a media card in the reader, the computer attempts to boot from the media card.
Cause
The inserted media card has boot capability.
Solution
Ensure that the card is inserted properly with the gold contact
on the correct side. The green LED will light if inserted properly.
Solution
Open My Computer (Windows XP) or Computer (Windows
Vista), right-click on the corresponding drive icon, and select
Eject. Then pull the card out of the slot.
NOTE: Never remove the card when the green LED is
flashing
Solution
Wait a few seconds so that the operating system can recognize
the reader and the available ports, and then recognize
whatever media is inserted in the reader.
Solution
If you do not want to boot from the media card, remove it during
boot or do not select the option to boot from the inserted media
card during the boot process.
