I have a USB-media reader and only need the USB-storage drivers. Never did figure out what the SD-drivers are really for. Are you certain the USB-reader can actually handle the SD-cards? Especially the newer "High Capacity" ones can be a bit tricky as not all readers can handle those. Did you also try an "older" SD-card of "small" capacity, like 512MB? -- Joost
