I would like to use the card readers in an old I/O Magic
IOM-DS701 USB 7 in 1 reader with my laptop running Vista Home Basic. When I plugged it into the laptop, Vista detected it and installed some of the drivers with the following results:
Generic USB Hub - Ready to Use
Mitsumi USB Floppy - Ready to Use
USB Mass Storage Device - Failed
MITSUMI FDD USB Device - Ready to Use
It can read and write floppies just fine but Vista does not show the SD card when plugged in. The unit works fine in Windows XP and and all card slots show up a drive letters even with no cards plugged in.
I contacted I/O Magic's live tech support chat and was told that nothing on their web site or device packaging says it supports Vista. I am open to suggestions for possible alternate sources of compatible drivers.
