| 1196859 | 2011-04-25 02:35:00 | I have a generic USB card reader installed (took it from another PC) but it doesn't read any of my SD cards! Device Manager shows yellow exclamation marks. However, driver details as shown below: C:\Windows\System32\DRIVERS\UMDF\WpdFs.dll C:\Windows\System32\DRIVERS\UMDF\WUFRd.sys It doesn't come with any driver CD but remembered it did work on another PC running Windows 7 Ultimate. The PC I have now is Win 7 Home Prem. Could someone help me to get it to work? Edit: Device Manager says : Device cannot start. |

| 1196861 | 2011-04-25 03:24:00 | Got it working now. What I did was assigning a drive letter to it and restarted my PC. What I don't understand is, why it has to be assigned a drive letter for it to work? |

| 1196862 | 2011-04-25 03:34:00 | Its like a hdd. If it doesnt have a letter, you wont see it in my computer / computer | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1196863 | 2011-04-25 03:45:00 | And probably unless you have something plugged into it, it won't know it's there, so won't assign a drive letter automatically. :2cents: | feersumendjinn (64) | ||

| 1196865 | 2011-04-25 05:22:00 | I have a multi-card reader which shows up as 4 removable drives and is automatically assigned drive letters even without media in it. Chipset is made by Alcor Micro. |
