Compaq Presario CQ62 laptop does not see SD card

I have a Compaq Presario CQ62 laptop (Windows 7 64bit) that has a built in media card reader that has never worked.
When I insert the SD card it makes the "USB Beep Up sound" that says it sees the card - but when I go to MY COMPUTER, there is no device listed for the SD card.  How do I read and write to an SD card with this laptop?

I have done that.
In DEVICE MANAGER I can see the SD Card show up under "Disk Drives" when the SD card is inserted, and disappear when it is removed.
Under Storage>Disk Management the SD card shows up as drive 1 (main drive is drive 0) but no drive letter. 
When I right-click on the SD card Drive 1 and try to change to a drive letter, I get an error message and it will not let me.  It will not let me format either. 
The driver is from microsoft and is old - 6/21/2006. I did some google searching and read that a driver update would fix the issue. I uninstalled the card reader driver, got a new driver from HP and installed it, and when I inserted the SD card it loaded up the old driver...ugh.

    The reason I have to use PulseAudio is stupid skype that crashes on start without it installed.
    Help?

    Yep, that's the one I have installed. However it looks like the problem fixed itself. The sound now works, HOWEVER, I have a 5.1 system and only center, rears, and the sub works. Left and Right (main) don't. pavucontrol is set to 5.1 output. When I turn down the individual volumes of main left and main right, the center speaker is the one that actually is turned down. It's as if PulseAudio thinks that center speaker somehow represents both main left and right.

  • Dell Laptop does not see AEBS

    I have a Dell Inspiron laptop with a built in wireless card. Airport Utility does not see the AEBS. I disabled the "radio" on my Intel ProSet Wireless and connected the AEBS to my laptop using an ethernet cable. I can then see and configure the AEBS. I've tried adjusting the settings, picking either 802.1 "b" or "a" compatibility, but I still do not see the base station unless it is connected by the ethernet. Are there settings I need to adjust on the base station or on my laptop so that the wireless will work?
    Terry

    Did you ever figure out how to get your dell to recognize the AEBS? I am having the identical problem.

  • Laptop does not see wireless j4680 printer

    I have an HP Officejet J4680 printer connected wirelessly to my HP desktop (Windows Vista os).  I am attempting to print from my lenovo t500 laptop (Windows XP os) which is using the same wireless network as the desktop.  I have set the printer as shared on the desktop and am trying to install the printer on the laptop but am not able to.  When I use the 'Ass a Printer' Wizard I have tried both the Network and the local printer options.  It does not see the printer at all.  Any suggestions?  The laptop is for work and I log on to business via VPN - do not know if thisis a factor.
    Thanks in advance for any guidance
    Jane

    I am confused.  You say that the printer is connected wirelessly to an HP desktop.  Is this through a router?  What kind?
    While connected via VPN no other network devices can be accessed (like a networked printer) nor can any other device access the computer on a VPN.
    Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

  • Encoder 3.1 on Windows 7 64bit does not see video card

    hi
    any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated;
    We are running Newtek's VT[5] on a windows machine and have been
    very successful running Flash Media Live Encoder 3.1, streaming Live
    to a server.
    Recently we were upgraded from XP and 32bit to Windows 7 and 64bit;
    Now the encoder does NOT see the video, although it recognizes both
    the VT video device and VT audio device. My understanding is that
    Flash Media Live Encoder 3.1 should run on the operating system
    and with Newtek VT[5] (even though the VT capture card is not on Adobe's
    official list)
    http://www.adobe.com/support/documentation/en/flashmediaencoder/FMLE_DeviceMatrix3.1.pdf
    Of course....Adobe wants me to purchase a contract for tier-2 support to answer
    the question of whether the encoder will work on our 'new' setup.
    again,
    any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated;

    Are you sure that correct and latest device drivers are installed on that machine?
    Please check the video device settings. If FMLE is able to detect the device it should get the signal and work with that.

  • HT4101 I have a NIKON COOLPIX P500 but am unable to download photos through the IPad camera connection kit. I have tried to use the Sandisk card also - no result. Any suggestions? The Ipad does not "see" the card or camera?

    I have a Nikon Coolpix P500 but am unable to download photos from it to my iPad2 via the iPad Camera Connection kit. The iPad does not see either the Sandisk 8GB card or the Nikon camera. I have turned the camera on, but it seems that the camera just want to recharge its battery through the iPad as the iPad states that the devices draws too much power?? Anybodu solved this problem yet? Advise please?

    One thing to check is the format that the camera is saving pics to the card in. Many are selectable and, in most cases, if PTP is one of the options then you need to have that one selected for the files to be visible to iOS and the CCK (connection kit).
    Another thing which sometimes comes up, especially with older cameras and therefore probably not with yours, is the filenaming conventions used by the camera. iOS is quite strict about what it expects to see and if files are being stored with unsupported name formats then they simply won't be seen at all.

  • Notebook does not see mPCIe card (asm1061)

    Aloha Community,
    i am using an old notebook as a small server (cups/ftp/http/etc).
    The Notebook is an old Dell Inspiron 1520.
    I attached three 3,5'' HDDs to it which are powered via an external PSU.
    the first HDD is connected to the original sata-port.
    the other two are connected to a ASMedia ASM1061 Sata-controller. This controller sits on a small mPCIe card which i fitted on one of the three mPCIe slot the Notebook offers me (i tried all three).
    In Bios all mPCIe-Slots are activated, still the OS does not see the HDDs.
    also lspci seems not to see the card. Any ideas?

  • Canon EOS 350D does not see memory card--I've tried two different ones. Will not format--err 99

    My EOS 350d has not worked since it was shipped to my daughter.  Bought new memory card and camera still does not recognize that a card is in it.  When connected to computer I could see card but it had 0 used memory and 0 memory available.  Now it does not show at all.  Using canon software get same response--no memory card.  Have tried with two different memory cards.  Even formatted one card on PC, still nothing.  Any ideas what to try next--pins look like they are all in correct place.

    Unfortunately, the Error 99 code is not a specific error code and can indicate a number of issues, such as battery power issues, shutter issues, etc.  The more I looked into the 350D and memory card compatibility the more I think that may not be the issue.  In all honesty, I'd contact Canon support as you may have to send your camera in for repairs. 
    Before doing that, though, I'd try this. Restart your camera, wait a few moments then set the camera's power to Off and remove the batteries.  Open the memory card slot cover to make sure the memory card is securely set in the card slot, then reinsert the batteries and turn the power to On. Hopefully that will do the trick, and if not I'd update the firmware for the camera as a last resort and see if that rectifies the problem.  If not, contact customer support.

  • OEL6.1 in VM manager does not see network card

    I installed OL6.1 as a guest machine in VM manager. I started the install process and when I got to the network configuration it would not let me click on "configure network", it was greyed out. I thought that was a little bit odd but I just thought that I would configure it later. Once I got to the desktop of OL6.1 i checked for the eth0 settings but there was no eth0 at all. The OL6.1 did not even know a network card existed, but I tried to add it manually and still it did not see anything and would not connect to the internet. Has anyone seen this problem before? Thanks.

    I will try to answer to the best of my knowledge your questions but I am a bit new at this. I downloaded the OEL 6.1iso media from Oracle site, I then imported it into the resources section in VM manager 2.1.
    I then used the create new Virtual Machine and selected the server pool.
    I selected the ISO file with OEL 6.1.
    I gave it a name, memory size, console password.
    Below that I can see the Virtual Network Interface is selected and it shows Bridge xenbr0.
    It is showing Fully Virtualized machine not paravirtualized mode. As far as I know I did not install in Xen HVM or with PV drivers.
    That is about all I did. Then I started the machine and when through the install process but it did not see the virtual network device.

  • Laptop does not see WRT54G

    I just bought a linksys WRT54G wireless router from Curcit City
    I have a Sony Vio Laptop using XP with a built in wireless LAN Express IEEE 802.11 g card
    My laptop sees other wireless networks in the area but not my linksys WRT54G wireless network
    but yet at the same time my sons psp sees the  linksys WRT54G wireless network and can log in fine,  I thought this wirerless router works with other wireless g adaptors my laptop has a built in adaptor for g and should work
    Thanks, hope somone may have some advice getting this to see the linksys wireless network

    hi...it's true that the wireless router does work with non-linksys adapters...the only thing that needs to be taken care of is the wireless setting on the router..
    now, as the other wireless device sees the wireless router, i don't see any reason why the laptop cannot see the wireless network...
    ensure that the wireless switch on the laptop is turned ON...and it connects to other wireless networks just fine....

  • Macbook pro does not see sd card

    I've repeatedly inserted an SD card into my MacBook Pro but am unable to see it.
    I'm new to Mac product and the card was formatted in a Windows 7 system. It has documents on it which I'd like to edit.
    I could understand not being able to access it, but, the Macbook Pro gives absolutely no indication the SD card was inserted into the slot.
    I'm sure I'm doing something wrong.
    Suggestions?

    I had the same problem.  I tried everything that everyone's suggested, but no results.  Then I sprayed a can of air/duster into the slot.  Voila!  It works!

  • Have a mac mini. Just got a external HD. I want to store my itunes media on my external HD and play back on Windows XP laptop. My laptop does not recognize the HD. Only recognizes the empty partition I created on my mac when I partition the drive. What's

    I have a mac mini-snow leopard. I recently bought an external HD. I want to use part of the HD to back up my mac via Time Machine. The other part I want to use to store my Itunes and other media such as movies with VLC so that I can take the HD and play it back thru my windows XP laptop. The problem is that my laptop does not see the part of the external drive that has my mac info stored on it. Only sees the drive ( as drive E ) with zero data that was created by me when I partitioned it on my mac. I partitioned the drive in two. One partitioned under GUID for mac. The other part under exfat for windows. Any suggestions on why my XP laptop cannot view the mac info on the HD. Thanks.
