Hi! i have the ptoblem in my Dell inspiron 710m is no recognizing my toshiba SDHC memory card.

i just need some help here.sounds very easy but im so dumb in computer stuff..

from the comment above on manual instruction on

“Unzip them, open the Device Manager and locate your SD device. Right click the device ”

which one is The device i tried disk drive.flash memory devices..its not working. may i know which device i should update?

thanks!

after installing Hotfix also cant detect my SDHC card…=(

Worked flawlessly in Inspiron 6400 with a Kingston SDHC card 4GB class 4.

I was wondering why it worked naturally with an Acer laptop running ubuntu and not with my Dell under WinXP Home.

Really thanks for this step by step.

Hey, cheers for doing the hard work on our behalf. Awesome find. I would have had no idea to look for this. It seems to all be working now – formatting as I speak!

My problem was; when I put in a standard (not SDHC) 4GB card it would tell me that it’s an SD card, tell me it needed formating, but get nowhere when I tried to format. As soon as the new driver was installed it recognised the card. Doesn’t even seem to need formating now, although I’m doing one of them just to see what happens.

For anyone’s info, I’ve got an Inspiron 1501 (not the best, still looking for a graphics driver that works!). I did as was suggested – “I did not use the setup program. I updated the driver directly from the device manager. I found the SD Host Controller and updated the driver manually” and had no problems. Thanks again.

Steve, glad to here everything is fine. I wanted give you some tips about your video driver. As you know, many laptop manufacturers NEVER update their display drivers. If you own a Nvidia or ATI/AMD based video adapter, you’ll notice that even though you own their product, they will not provide you with drivers. They just refer you to the laptop manufacturers web site. Anyhow, omegadrivers.net provides you with the reference drivers which are the latest and greatest for your display adapter. Give it a try, I have used it on all my laptops without a problem. Use them at your own risk however, and always do a backup and create a system restore point to be safe.

aqlim, It may be labeled as a “Secure Digital Host Adapter” or be listed under IDE drivers. Your 710M might not use the above Ricoh chipset. Good luck.

Thanks. I used this on my DELL Inspiron 6400 running vista ultimate, and I can read a 32GB SDHC card with no problems!

If anybody can help, my Inspiron E1405 won’t read my card despite having the latest driver. If anybody can help, it would be very appreciated.

And, I’m on Vista Basic currently.

Sorry Rohit, I don’t know anything about Vista.

Thank you,
SDHC, XPS1330, XP works great

thanks a bunch
downloading the zip made it work
now i can snap away on my new canon g10 and easily get the pics to my vostro 1500

thankkkkkkkkkkkkk you

Very usefull thinks. I try this driver on my Dell 500 under WinXP, before installation, it reads only SD, not SDHC cards. After – all works! Big thanks for instruction!

Worked perfectly on my ThinkPad Z60m! Thanks!

Whoop!! (Thanks)

Thanks. Worked great on my Dell Inspiron 1525 with XP installed.

Thx a lot!

This is the first driver that works for my Dell D420!

Hi,
I have Dell inspiron E1405 Laptop and I am not able to access the 4 GB SDHC in my laptop. Its not detecting the card at all.
I follow the above steps given by Cote and still my system is not able to read the SDHC. My system is on Windows XP only.
Pl help me to find the solution for the same.

Thanks,
Srinivas

hi,
Can some one help me to get the access my 4GB SDHC cards in my Dell inspiron E1405 laptop.

Thanks in advance
Srinivas.

I installed update on my Inspiron 6000 and seemed to be a miracle, but when I tried to open the card to put stuff on it, it says, “please insert disk in drive E:” even though it now shows the card as drive E: when I stick it in. When I try and format it, it will only allow me to use FAT (not FAT32) and will only allow me to format a capacity of 512 bytes. Any suggestions?

the first and only driver to support sdhc on thinkpad r61. many thanks.

Great article. I actually had a similar problem w/ Dell E1505 (WinXP) not reading my SDHC card or my husband’s SD card while I had no problem reading memory from my Memory Stick Pro Duo (w/ the adapter). The weird thing was that my husband’s E1505 could read the card and we bought them at the same time w/ the same specs, etc. In any case, your solution worked fabulously. Thanks again!

hi , same problem as kevin w.

can now see the icon and drive but cannot access it.

shows as fat and only512 when its a 16 gb card ?

any help greatly appreciated.

kevin , did u manage to crack it ?

Thank you so much !! I allready lost a hope to solve my probloem on XP. I new it isn`t hardware, becouse on my notebook with win7 installed, the SDHC worked.., but nowhere could not find driver for XP.
Final note: works for Samsung R50 !!

Worked like a charm, thanks a lot

Thank you so much, i was going bonkers because i tried all that i knew. Now i can use my SD card

The E1007029.exe driver worked perfectly on my Dell Vostro 1000 with Windows XP Home SP2.
My Sandisk 8GB Ultra II SDHC card wasn’t recognized all in the onboard slot before, but after downloading this driver and using Device Manager to update, the card now works perfectly.

Thanks so much!

Hi,

Installed Windows 7 Enterprise Edition in a Dell Latitude D420, and SD reader was just recognizing normal SD cards but wasn’t able to format them.

Now with this drivers it works like a charm with SD and SDHC cards.

Thanks for this.

Thank you so much for your post. I had the exact same problem with my Dell Vostro 1000 and a 16gb SDHC card for my Panasonic camera. Followed your instructions and fixed problem!

I would not of had a clue how to do this without your help.

Thanks Again!.

Bill.

This is awesome. Works perfectly on my Dell 640m recognizing my 8GB HCSD.

Thanks. Great advice. Couldn’t get the Dell drivers to install. This helped a great deal.

thanks a million. works perfect on Dell Inspiron 9400 WinXP

KRgds,
thomas

And what next… IT WORKS FINE.. ABSOLUTELY FINE

THANKS TO ALL COMMENTS HERE
WHICH ALSO HELPED

Hi,
Works well. thanks a lot.

You. You saved me and my work. After having had to reformat my laptop in a panicked emergency (nasty nasty network/CPU hijacking spambot virus that I could not rid my machine of), it took me a while to get my bearings back and reinstall everything. it wasn’t until nearly a couple weeks later, I decided to resume my photo work. I had forgotten to backup my camera’s card. I did not initially think this was a big deal until when I went to gather the data from my card… it would not recognize that the card was even in the slot. I had opened my machine up to clean the fans recently so I considered the possibility that I may had forgotten to connect something. After much frustration and not having found any disconnected ports… I closed up shop and turned the computer on again… It still didn’t work. It was at this moment that I remembered where I had placed my old SD cards. I tested them against my SDHC and low and behold… each of them, minus the SDHC, was recognized and worked flawlessly. I scoured the web for data recovery programs the two I tried…they were unable to read the card… I was almost ready to accept that years of photos…years of experiences…years of raw data were lost to the corrupted drive gods. Almost. As a last ditch effort, I woefully googled for a possible third party driver for what I had previously assumed was take care of by dell, fairly certain that I would not find any answers…

I happened upon your blog. I downloaded the executable. (I am a semi nervous nancy who scans her executable prior to engaging them. hehe) Within five minutes, including the reboot, I gently slipped the previously unreadable card into the slot, crossed my fingers, looked toward the sky and hoped. When the tone of drive recognition sounded, tears of joy welled in my eyes. Some five hours after the desire to get some real work done had hit me… I am finally able to get to it… Of course, now that I am done with all of that… I’m going to procrastinate a bit… but… that is not the point. lol.

Thank you for your help.
