| 1187612 | 2011-03-20 02:03:00 | Hi. I discovered my Toshiba Satellite Pro laptop has a card slot. I found a Kodak SD Card out of an old camera and inser:confused:ted it in the slot but nothing happened. A more knowlegeable friend said that this is a problem with Win7 and that I needed to download a driver. He gave me a website for a driver and I downloaded and installed something called an 02Microfash Memory Card Driver 3.00 zip Absolutely nothing happened. What should I have done? |

| 1187615 | 2011-03-20 04:33:00 | What is the model number of the laptop? | bot (15449) | ||
| 1187616 | 2011-03-20 05:18:00 | I would go to the toshiba site and search for the exact model see if the card reader driver is there. If it is download / install. If it still wont work the card or the reader are dead | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1187617 | 2011-03-20 05:26:00 | I would assume the card reader gets auto detected by any modern OS (like a USB card reader). | Nomad (952) | ||
| 1187618 | 2011-03-20 05:35:00 | Should it should appear in device manager | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1187619 | 2011-03-20 05:49:00 | On my wife's laptop, inserting the card brings it up in My Computer as a additional hard drive, just like you see a thumb drive. Might not read SD cards, my wife's one reads the bigger CF and I think SDHC cards but not xD either |

| 1187620 | 2011-03-20 16:08:00 | The laptop is an L300. I am assuming the card is not an SDHC card as I read this morning that SDHC cards start at 4gb. I have tried the Toshiba sites and several other. Found what I thought might be a suitable driver but when trying to install get an error message, 'Error occured in creating folder [119]' I am rapidly gettting out of my depth here (Stop sniggering) so think the best thing to do is to take it to my tame techie and let him try to figure it out. Aeroplanes I understand. Computers are somtimes just too much for this tired old brain. Still open to any other suggestions you might have, my tame techie lives in another town so have time for some more playing around before I visit him. Thanks for the replies so far. Each one adds to my knowledge base. |

| 1187621 | 2011-03-20 20:29:00 | Look on the toshiba site just in case. Theres like 20 L300's on the site. You'll have to see if there's any letters after the L300. Like SP6993A | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
