I bought a SDHC (Security Disk with High Capacity) of 4GB for my Nintendo DSi, but when I plugged it Windows did nothing. I went to My Computer and chosed the SD card reader driver but it froze my computer, I unplugged the card and it unfroze. I have tried to install the 3 hotfixes for that but all say this:The Installation program detected that the Service Pack version of the sistem is more recent than this update.It is not necessary to install this update.Even if I have a Windows XP Proffessional with Service Pack 3 system, my SD card reader does not read my SDHCcard. Is there a way to fix this? If so, please answer!
Your card reader has to support SDHC. It probably doesn't.
Go to your Pc manufacturers site and get the updated drivers for the Card reader.
You won't find one either! Windows sucks in that regard as there is no driver that allows Windows to access the High Capacity media cards. However, if you use it in with the device it was intended for via a cable then you'll be able to access the card! For instance, a camera using a usb cable ect. I had the same problem and that was the only way I could use my 16 gig card!
No, not all SD card readers can read SDHC cards, to remedy this problem get a reader that specifies it can read SDHC. It has nothing to do with Windows XP with SP3, its the reader itself. I have Win XP with SP3 as most of us who still use XP have. I just made sure my reader was able to handle SDHC type cards as well when I installed it. Get an internal reader instead of external USB type because internal ones, though they attach to the computer via the USB internal headers, they will read at top speed always, while external readers always seem to be much slower and sluggish.
