Hi'a guys,
When I first boot up my pc, and insert my camera's memory card into the card reader, everything goes fine. To remove it, I use the 'remove hardware safely' option, and that's fine. But when I want to insert it at a later date, unless I have rebooted my pc, my reader wont recognise that the card is inserted. If I reboot, all is well. When I look in device manager, under "universal bus serial controllers" there is a device with the yellow exclaimation mark, which when I look at the properties I get this message "Windows cannot use this hardware device because it has been prepared for "safe removal", but it has not been removed from the computer. (Code 47)" I am assuming this is my card reader drive? But I always "safely remove" my card, so I don't know what's up.
I am running Windows XP sp2, and the card reader make is apacer. This has only recently started happening, but I can't think of anything I've installed that may conflict with it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, just keep it simple for this girl. Thanks...
