Warren,
I assume you are using the windows system tray 'stop hardware' icon prior to
removing the card from the reader. By using the stop hardware tool you are
stopping the card reader and not the card within the reader. The card should
be hot swappable within the reader (obviously don't pull it in the middle of
either reading or writing!). Since you cannot unplug and replug the card
reader you have no other option than to reboot to get the card reader back
again. I am assuming that you have a floppy drive space replacement
multireader built into a desktop machine, though this situation will occur
with USB card readers too but they are easily unplugged and replugged.

Subject: [OM] OT CF card usage
Hi, this is sort of OT but applies to E-300 etc. When I use a CF card with
the front panel of the HP Pavilion and finish copying or whatever, I use the
little green arrow to eject the card, windoze powers it down and I take out
the card. But when I insert a new card the card reader doesn't come to
life. I used to have a cheapie card reader which, whenever I plugged it in,
would wake up. Is there any way you know of that will refresh the card
reader? Thanks.
Warren
