	the corresponding drive icon, and then select Eject. Pull the
	card out of the slot.
	In Windows 8, on the Start screen, type e, and then click File
	Explorer from the list of applications. Expand Computer,
	right-click on the corresponding drive icon, and then select
	Eject. Pull the card out of the slot.

After installing the media card reader and booting to Windows, the reader and the inserted cards are not recognized by the computer.

Cause

Solution

The operating system needs time to recognize the device if the reader was just installed into the computer and you are turning the PC on for the first time.

Wait a few seconds so that the operating system can recognize the reader and the available ports, and then recognize the media inserted in the reader.

After inserting a media card in the reader, the computer attempts to boot from the media card.

Cause	Solution

The inserted media card has boot capability.	1.	If you do not want to boot from the media card, remove
		it during boot or do not select the option to boot from the
		inserted media card during the boot process.
	2.	During POST (Power On Self-Test), press F9 to modify the
		boot menu.
	3.	Change the boot sequence in F10 Computer Setup.
