Hi All

I have tried the reader in every USB port on the PC tower and the hub all to
no avail. I have tried as a straight plug-in and by turning off, plugging in
and then re-booting (All ten of them) I tried to load the drivers from the
disc but as I'm using XP home that will only work for Win98 therefore it
ignored me. I don't think the unit is damaged but have no way of telling.

Any other ideas please?

Roger

If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.
