    Hey Guys,

    I have a Dell XPS M1330, and running Windows Vista Home Pemium 32bit.

    This laptop has a built in memory card reader (SD/MMC - MS/Pro)

    When i put a card in the reader, it doesnt react, or show in 'my computer' as being accessable... I was worried about this, so went to Device Management to see if there were any probs,

    I found the drive... and when i clicked properties, i got this error message in the dialogue box.
    "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware because a previous instance of the device driver is still in memory. (Code 38)
    Click 'Check for solutions' to send data about this device to Microsoft and to see if there is a solution available."

    When i clicked for a solution, Microsoft doesnt find one. The only way i can access the card is if i leave it in the machine and Restart each time.. Does anybody know how to fix this Driver to work properly when cards are inserted into the reader?

    Thanks

    Try uninstalling the driver through Device Manager, then shut down and re-boot. Windows should re-load the driver.
