Hello, I hope someone can help me with my problem. When I bought my pc with its card reader, windows explorer had 4 removable disks, which were the card reader slots. Nowadays, they have disappeared! I think it could happen since I update my windows. Does anybody know how can I solve this problem??? maybe changing any parameter of the BIOS??? Thanks in advance. Bye
 
Don't have drivers, the reader is a Gigabyte GO-C61LA 9-in-1 Flash Memory Card Drive (Black). I couldn't find any drivers on gigabyte site. I can't see the reader in the device manager, it seems that it's not recognized. Don't know what to do next. Do you?? Many thanks
 
Did you try putting a card in it? Some times for one reson or another windows will make them go away until you put some thing in it...
 
very possible you need drivers, when i formatted my laptop's factory os the drive dissappears and i have to download from hp site.
 
It's an internal device. I think maybe some parameter of the BIOS, but know nothing about firewire. Inserting a card doesn't change anything, windows doesn't recognize it. Don't have drivers, gigabyte site doesn't seem to have it, that's only for me of course! hehe

Sorry, I was wrong, I have found that the card reader is connected to the motherboard through USB pin. The Firewire cable is for the IEEE1394 slot that is included on the card reader panel. Any suggestion??
 
I think you should try putting a card in to see what it does, and post a screen shot of windows explorer. Thank you
 
Well, I succeed!!! I just re-plugged the USB conector of the motherboard and that's it!!! Now, my cards are recognized. Maybe a pin is not connecting as it must be. Thanks for all answers I had. Bye!
