Guest Monkey on the Moon Posted October 3, 2007 Posted October 3, 2007 I bought a 4GB micro san disk card for use with my wireless phone. When I put it in the sd card slot on the computer - it just freezes. I can't pull up the G: drive its located under. My old 2GB card worked fine. I tried it on my wife's laptop that has vista and it showed up. I'm assuming XP can't recognize the 4GB card - is there a software update that will fix this issue?
Guest Ace Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 Re: Xp not recognizing my sd card Try updating the drivers for the SD Card reader in your computer. Failing that, you could try a different card reader; And failing that... is this one of the newer Sandisk cards that has the fold-back USB interface? If yes, you can plug the back end right into a free USB port and use the card like any other regular USB flash drive. =?Utf-8?B?TW9ua2V5IG9uIHRoZSBNb29u?= <Monkey on the Moon@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in news:9CB20F05-60E4-4AB9-9CEE-D8CBF2C8EB5E@microsoft.com: > I bought a 4GB micro san disk card for use with my wireless phone. > When I put it in the sd card slot on the computer - it just freezes.

Are you using the MicroSD to SD adapter? The problem is not that XP can not read the 4GB card but the SD reader "might" not be able to read it. I have seen SD readers where the manaul states "clearly" up to which capacity the reader can handle.
