I figured out my problem with the 4GB SD card I had bought. It wasn’t Dell’s fault that it didn’t work; I chatted with a representative and confirmed the slot is supposed to accept SDHC cards. It turned out to be a Microsoft XP problem, naturally. It fell under KB 934428, in which XP requires a hotfix to make it recognize cards 4GB or larger. Of course, the hotfix system takes forever to respond, you actually have to wait for a live person to respond, so I found the SDHC card hotfix online and that was that! Now my computer recognizes my 4GB SD card no problem. Yay!

I have WinXP Professional Version with ServicePack 3 installed.
Upon executing WindowsXP-KB934428-v2-x86-ENU.exe, I received message saying that it is not required as ServicePack3 is installed.
But I cannot read from SDHC card.
Pls help.

I’m in a love/hate relationship with virtual memory because of the way prices are always,and I domean always falling. I hate buying SDs for my R4 / R4i at (seemingly) a cheap price only to see it become ten percent cheaper a couple of months later.(Posted using RPost for R4i Nintendo DS.)

It’s interesting to see just how pervasive memory has become in our everyday lives. It seems like everytime I turn my head, I see something with a card slot or USB jack, haha. I guess it makes sense though, considering how much cheaper memory has become lately…Ahhh, who am I to complain. I can’t make it through a day without using my R4 / R4i!(Posted using Nintendo DS running R4i OperaMod)
