To remove an SD card from my PC I have to click "remove safely". If I re-insert the card my PC will fail to recognise it until I have rebooted. This is obviously a bit of a drag. Is there a way round this?
Thanks

If you're running AVG anti virus...uninstall that..
Try without going through the 'safely remove' option..see if it still picks it up when you re-insert it.

Thanks but, as far as I know, you have to safely remove to prevent damage to the data - but, yes, I do have AVG. Perhaps I need to remove AVG and install Avast instead...

Sure....
The only other time I've seen this issue is when AVG was running on the PC...give it a go and try it..:D
(Download the AVG Removal tool to get rid of all parts of it though...Google AVG Removal tool and should get the grisoft link near the top of the listings...)

If for no other reason you'd gain protection from virusus and other malware by getting a anti-virus program thats vaguely reliable
