SD Card needs driver in Vista?!

Posted: 08-17-2007, 06:22 AM
I have an ASUS G1 notebook (Vista Home-Premium 32-bit) with an internal
memory card reader. My old camera had a 1gb SD card that wasn't fast enough
for readyboost. I just purchased an OCZ 2GB 150X SD Card assuming that it
would be more than enough for readyboost.

When I put the card into the slot, I get a prompt telling me that the SD
Card requires a driver... I tell it to automatically install, and it can't
find any such driver (of course, thats not a surprise.. I have never heard of
such a thing for an SD "Card"). It says that the device was not installed
properly, and I am unable to access the card (not in Computer, safely remove
devices, etc).

My 1GB card works perfectly without any troubles, and this 2GB card works
fine in my digital camera and another ASUS laptop (same card reader,
incidently) running windows XP.

The card reader is definately installed properly with the latest drivers
from the manufacturer, and I have all windows updates installed (including
the one for SD Card compatability).

I called OCZ, but they seemed to think it was a vista compatability problem,
and they would "look into it".

Any suggestions? I'm kinda ticked about spending a lot of money on a fast
card just for this purpose, and to top it off I purchased it from a small
shop when I was out of town, and a return is not possible!
