USB CARD READER FOR HP PAVILION 500-C60 DESKTOP?

I have a new HP Pavilion 500-C60 desktop computer, but the front panel card reader does not accept the larger Compact Flash (CF) flash card. I do have an older USB multi-card reader with four differing card slots, one of which accepts the CF card. Would this arrangement work satisfactorly?
Thanks,

Hello @shamrock838,
I understand that your HP Pavilion 500-c60 Desktop PC does not support the larger Compact Flash Memory Card and you are inquiring as to whether or not you can install a USB multi-card reader that accepts the CF Memory Card. First, you are correct the 7-in1 Multimedia Card Reader you do have installed does not support the CF Memory Card, but it does support the following cards:
Secure Digital™ (SD)
Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC)
SDXC
Memory Stick
Memory Stick Select
Memory Stick PRO
Memory Stick MagicGate
I do not see why you cannot connect the 4-in1 USB multi-card reader that you have. As long as the operating system detects it and installs it you should be fine.
I hope I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

Upgrading graphics card for Pavilion 500-314 Desktop PC

I am looking to upgrade the graphics card in my HP Pavilion 500-314 Desktop PC. I was looking around and saw some forums that said it would be very difficult to do so with this PC and I have found a few that said it is absolutly possible. Unforunatly none of those forum posts were from this site except one that did not give much explanation, so I figured I would just ask.
The graphics card that comes with this PC is decent enough to run most current games, just not at the level I would prefer. I am not looking for the most cutting edge ultra mega super gamer graphics card, just something this PC can handle that would be an upgrade with 2GB dedicated vram.
Thank you in advance for any help you guys can give me!
PS This will be my first upgrade I have ever done on a PC myself outside of the ram on this same PC, so please try to keep that in mind with any explanation/answer .

Your system has UEFI BIOS, so you'll need to understand Secure Boot. Then read this to change settings. For gaming, I would go here, and do the "Can I Run It" quiz. Would recommend a Corsair 600W PSU.

Hi anyone. Can I buy an SD card reader for my old Powerbook G4, OSX, 10.4.11 and it's only USB. I've never needed one previously but I now need to update the firmware on my camera. Can I get one, if so which one's best? Many thanks.

Hello,
If it is a PowerBook G4 with a PC Card slot, you have two possibilities. You could buy a USB card reader for SD, or a PC Card adapter (such as SanDisk's 6-in-1adapter). Please note that you are or may be limited to plain SD (that is, not SDHC) unless otherwise noted. For a USB reader, make sure that it has Mac support. BTW, is an SD card absolutely necessary for the firmware update; is there not a way of updating via cable? If you post back with the camera model, someone may be able to provide additional information.

Can anyone recommend a USB CF card reader that will work in my Macbook Pro Retina? My USB card readers for CF cards do not work

At present, the only way I can load photos from a CF card to my new Macbook Pro Retina is by loading them onto an external hard drive via an old PC that can accept either of my USB card readers, then plugging the external hard drive into my MBP. Neither the USB card reader or the cable that comes with the Canon HDSLR camera will transfer photos directly to my MBP. I find it unbelievable that I have to go to a PC to load photos because I can't do it with my new MBP.
Has anyone found a reliable USB CF card reader, or one that connects via thunderbolt or HDMI, at any price, that will work directly with the new MBP Retina?

This is what we need:
Location photoshoot - we use the Canon EOS 5D Mk II still camera & the Canon FX100 pro camcorder.
CF cards are: SanDisk Extreme UDMA & SanDisk Extreme Pro UDMA 6 for video (I think they are both Type II) My Mac recognises them both as FAT 32 format
My MBPRetina is on the latest version of Mountain Lion OSX 10.83
the files from the camcorder will transfer to my MacBook Pro Retina directly via the camera's cable but it is quite slow & it means I cannot continue to film while downloading files but this we can live with.
the files from the still camera Canon EOS 5D Mk II will not transfer directly via the camera's cable - have yet to get the Canon software to download, but via the camera's cable will not help anyway as we need to have the still camera free to keep shooting.
We need to be able to take out the CF card from the first part of the shoot & download the still shots while just on the Macbook's battery power, while we insert a fresh CF card back into the still camera to continue with the next part of the shoot simultaneously (while the first card is downloading.)
The files from the first part of the shoot will be both in RAW (.CR2) & Jpeg format. We just need to quickly transfer the jpegs, then I do a quick sort, batch the best ones as black/white images, & use these in a client slideshow immediately after part 2 of the shoot.
Obviously we need fast data transfer speeds, & rely on the MBP's battery power while on a location shoot.
The card readers I have tried are an older specific CF card reader branded as Palm, & a USB 2 multi card reader branded as Travel Flash. With both readers, the lights on the readers flash on & off, & the MBP recognises the card & the files will even appear both in Finder & in i-Photo, so it starts importing, then aborts with an error message saying:
'The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “” can’t be read or written.
(Error code -36)'
& another message saying:
'the disk was not ejected properly'.
So it appears the MBP does read the CF cards but the card readers don't stay connected, no matter what angle I put them on or however many times I re-connect them.
Yes, they are probably cheap & I want to buy a decent one.
So, in summary:
the card reader needs to work when the MBPR is only on battery power (I read in some forums that some USB card readers aren't so reliable on the laptop's battery power)
the card reader needs to be quite fast. I have read the USB 3 readers won't read CF cards at higher than USB 2 speeds. Is this true? Are the firewire connected ones faster, & if so, are they still reliable on the MBP's battery power?
From research, it appears my problem is associated with my specific model of Mac & platform, being MacBook Retina on Mountain Lion OSX Version 10.83. If any of the recommended card readers have been successful with this, plese let me know.
Thanks heaps for the suggestions so far.

How can I replace a 5 in 1 memory card reader in a HP Pavilion 500-027c Desktop PC

I bought a refurbished HP Pavilion 500-027c Desktop PC computer from walmart 2 weeks ago... The 5-in-1 memory card reader does not work... the device manager says that it is working properly but when I put in a memory card nothing happens... The white light comes on indicating that the memory card has been inserted but the computer does not recognize that anything has been done... I would like to just replace the card reader itself... I see on hp support where it is possible to replace the memory card reader (front I/O), but I don't know where to purchase the actual card reader itself... I don't have any specs on the card reader either.... PLEASE HELP!!!!
This question was solved.

Thanks that page really helped out alot. And the card is a SDHC memory card. Now I just need to look into ordering part # 713240-003. How would I go about doing that anyways?
I bought it refurbished walmart and it had a 14 day warranty... Is there any type of manufacturer warranty?

PC-Card GPIB Interface for a Desktop PC using USB card reader?

I have a IOTech's PCMCIA GPIB interface card. It works well on the notebook with LabVIEW. I want to use it on the Desktop PC using USB card reader or other connectors with LabVIEW.

Somebody wrote in about this issue. From his comments, it sounds like it may work.

Hello,
I upgraded my HP Pavilion 500-267c windows 7 home premium 64 bit to windows 7 professional 32 bit. I require all the basic drivers. I couldn't find it anywhere for HP pavilion 500-267c windows 7 prof 32 bits. Please help!!!

Hi, Daniel:
There is no 32 bit support for your model.
You will have to experiment with drivers from business models and drivers from the hardware component mfr's websites.
You can try these for starters:
1. Chipset driver. Install first and reboot.

2. Graphics driver.

3. Audio. This one I am not sure of, and you may never get the audio to work (try updating from the device manager and use the automatic search once you can connect to the internet).

N8 won't recognise USB card reader

Hi, i was wondering if anyone knew which card readers the N8 recognises and which one's it wont. It doesn't recognise mine unfortunately. It's an Integral Mobile Card Reader.
Thanks

This is a tricky subject. The main problem seems to be that most card readers use about 500 mA, while the N8 (and I gather most mobile devices) can only handle USB devices up to 200 mA.
After some searching and experimenting I found an SD(HC) card reader that works:
http://www.mcbub.com/item/SD-MMC-RS-MMC-USB-Card-Reader-Writer-126439/
(I received a black transparent one)
I found it by searching for "200 mA card reader", so if you need another card format this might help you.
Note that for me 4 out of 5 of my cards worked: A Kingston 16GB SDHC class 10 (SD10G2 designation) failed, but four other SDHC cards worked perfectly: 4 GB Emtec class 4, 4 GB Sandisk Extreme III (class 6), 16 GB Emtec class 6 and 32 GB Dane-Elec ProLine200X (class 10)
Another warning: A reader that looks the same as one you've seen or heard that works does not have to have the same internals! So don't order by looks alone, check the power specs (although they are rarely mentioned).

HP Pavilion 500-336 Desktop PC not recognizing NVidia GeForce GT610 graphics card

I recently purchased a HP Pavilion 500-336 Desktop PC and I already had a EVGA NVDIA GeForce GT610 graphics card. When I try and install the graphicas card, I get the 6 beeps. So, I googled the problem and somebody had suggested to disable hyperthreading in the BIOS and go to legacy mode from UEFI mode which I did as well.
However, my monitor still doesn't turn on and goes to power saving mode. Please help. The customer service rep said the power supply needs to be upgraded, but I don't think this is true. This graphics card is not that power hungry.
Here are the specifications of my desktop: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&docname=c04345595
And here are the specifications of my video card: http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gt-610/specifications
Thanks in advance.

Hi:
You do not disable hyperthreading in the BIOS. I recommend you go back and enable that setting.
Please see this document for what settings you need to change in the BIOS when you install a non-HP video card...

Slow USB Card Reader - MacBook Air / Windows 7 64-bit / Boot Camp 3.2

Installation of Windows 7 64-bit on my new MacBook Air 11" seemed to go flawlessly from the attached USB SuperDrive. I see no driver issues or unrecognized devices in Device Manager. However, when attaching my Transcend USB 2.0 Compact Flash card reader to load pictures from my camera into Lightroom 3.3, data transfer is mega-SLOW. It takes several minutes (10?) to transfer just 4 pictures. It seems like it may be operating at USB 1.0 speeds.
Installing software from the SuperDrive on the same USB port seems to work fine. Attaching a USB mouse works fine. However, the USB card reader is very, very slow.
If I attach the same card reader, CF card, and cable to another Windows 7 machine, it works fine, so I don't think there's a problem with my reader / card / cable.
Any thoughts about how I might improve performance for the card reader on the MacBook Air (other than running Mac OS)?
Thanks!

Sun Ray - How to get external USB Card Reader working

Dear All,
i have the following problem. Maybe someone could help me or give me a clue to solve it.
SunRay Software 5 installed
Window 2003 R2 TerminalServer
Here my question:
I use a kiosk session with a smart card to conncet to the windows server - works perfect.
Login Screen and go.
Now i have to have to authenticate myself with an external usb card reader and smart
card (connected to the sun ray) to use a certain application on my win2003 server.
Via the windows rdp session (from the laptops) everthing is ok. The information from
the card reader is transferred to the server.
If i use the Sun Ray nothing happens. So here is my problem:
How do get the authentication information from the smart card to the server?
Thanks in advance
Best regards
Hans-Peter

Basically, reinstall the Boot Camp video drivers manually and if that doesn't work then go to the AMD/Radeon website and install the Windows drivers directly for your video card model.
If you want to do a search you will find others that have pretty good luck doing it either way.

Best media card reader for iphoto?

What is the best mediat card reader for a Macbook (unibody white) with USB connection.

I don't know if it's best but I bought a Targus High Speed SD/SDHC/MMC reader from WalMart. It's small, great for traveling, and plugs into a USB port. Works very well. About $10 as I recall.

Card Reader for iPad 2?

Hi there,
I'm a photographer that carries my iPad 2 16gb everywhere with me.
So when I'm out and about I want to be able to transfer and look at my pictures on my iPad.
I want to take some pictures and plug in a card reader to tranfer the photo's on to my iPad 2.
I have a camera that takes a SD card and one that takes a Compact Flash. I can't find anywhere that does a card reader for Ipad that accepts both a SD card and Compact Flash?
Anyone got one?
Thanks
Lauren

There might be some third party CF readers but for your CF camera it may be easier to use the USB attachment. I have a CF reader that works, but it's a vivitar one that's not made anymore.

Camera / USB card reader not connection to macs anymore - fine with PCs

Hi there,
I have a Canon EOS 50 which has a CF card - I normally connect this to our macbook pros with a crd reader via usb. Alternatively, I connect the camera directly.
Yesterday, something started to go wrong.
I was connecting the card to download photos - at first it recognised the card as an external drive, but was taking ages to read the photos. Then it flashed an error message up that it couldn't read the format of the disk (it had previously for about a year!).
Now when I connect the card via either reader or by connection to the camera, it doesn't recognise the card at all.
I tried this on both my mac book pros we own. Same issues.
Canon HD camcorder connects absolutely fine via usb, as does Ipod - so it isn't the usb port.
I think the cards are ok- (same issue with two different CF cards)
The camera connected no problem to my brother-in-law's vista machine, and downloaded the image files.
I tried connection with two different usb cables as well.
Any ideas as to what has happened?
Thanks,
ThreeIsles

Last year I purchased a USB card reader to have available with my laptop when I travel. It experienced the same problems you are having. It also wouldn't work with my G4.
I looked on the manufacturer's web site and sent their Customer Support an email explaining the problem. They sent me a new reader at no cost. It works. Suggest you do the same.
 Cheers, Tom

Copying files to SD card using USB card reader

Everytime I try to copy mp3 files to an SD card using a USB card reader my notebook hangs after just a few MB have been transferred. what should i do?

I myself have seen this happen right in front of me with a customer. Sometimes you have to me a little more selective with your card readers because not all of them work right out of the box.
I have found the Zio corporation readers to work splended with Mac OS X you can find them at Compusa I haven't really seen them any other place. But IMHO the issue is with your reader and not your memory.
As for the part number on the reader from compusa it is as follows that is if you are willing to give it a try....
Thunderbolt SD / MMC / MS Reader / Writer
Manufacturer: Zio Corporation
Mfg Part #: CM28100
Product Number: 332371
