PC not recognising SDcard

Hi
Running Vista desktop and I've just discovered that my PC is not recognising a 64mb SD card - never had problems in the past! Although it still works with laptop running Vista

Also same thing with an almost new 4gb Micro adaptor (also works on laptop) - help please!

Thank you

Cres

    Assuming your are using a card reader connected via USB, have you ruled out the possibility that the USB port on the PC is not working?

    Hi
    Thanks for replying. No, directly into the PC Slot in the front of the PC.

    Take a look in Control Panel, System, Hardware. Is all the hardware shown as working normally?

    Quite often these built-in card slots are actually internally connected to a USB interface, and these can quite readily stop working in Windows - possibly as a result of a Windows Update.
