| 642664 | 2008-02-25 21:02:00 | Yes I read the Wikipedia entry, thanks for identifying it: very enlightening; it tells me that there is an incompatibility somewhere, probably due to age as Adata is a big manufacturer of cards and has probably got it right. I have 2 of these AData 2GB cards and they are both behaving identically. The cards were read OK in the internal reader of a computer in an electrical store where I tried them surrepticiously, so the problam can be resolved. About Addata's first comment: I asked for some expansion and this is their answer: "Dear James, thanks for supporting A-DATA product. install USB Host of PC. you can consult the manual of motherboard. Please feel free to contact us if you have any further questions. Regards, A-DATA Customer Service Center" And Apacer's comments were unhelpful: "Dear James Kirk, You may use card reader to format it and see what happend. Clear to see A-DATA's card may have capability issue or malfunctioned. I guess you can ask them to replace a new one for you. Thank you for choosing Apacer.Apacer Teamap.apacer.com". I'm going to read the motherboard manual to see if I can identify some help; otherwise I'll buy a new (modern) reader: very cheap but a hassall to fit. |

| 642665 | 2008-02-25 21:51:00 | I was pointing my previous post at SurferJoe - he seemed to think the reader/card was faulty which can't be as it worked in your camera etc and other (smaller) cards work in your reader, when from what I read in the wiki page it would most likely be an incompatibility issue.. | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 642666 | 2008-02-28 01:20:00 | Agent 24, and all others who answered, Thanks I have SUCCESS. I purchased the internal flash card reader recommended by Agent 24, from PB Technologies in Auckland: their code MMRLAS1611, called "LASER 16 in 1 USB Card Reader": a very small $15 ex GST. I ordered Tuesday and it came Thursday (to Tauranga). The box is branded SSK, model SSK-ALLIN1-0545. I have fitted it, and it worked staright out of the box, no software change. I'm delighted; thanks everyone. I've bought a second unit for my daughter who is experiencing similar problems but with cards by different manufacturers. |
