Title:

Storage : SD Card Reader Does Not Appear to Function

Product:

LS800 & LE1600

OS Version:

Windows XP SP3 & Windows Vista

 

Issue / Question

After upgrading to Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3) or Windows Vista, the SD Card Reader may
not function as designed.  The SD device may appear in the Device Manager however no drive
letter will be assigned. Without a Windows assigned drive letter, the system cannot access
the files or folders stored on the SD card.

Resolution / Answer

XP SP3 includes an updated SD Card Reader driver which is currently not compatible with
the Motion SD Card Reader.  Rolling back the driver to the previous version may address
this issue.
