Try Newegg & search for "multicard reader" http://www.newegg.com/ You can refine the search for internal readers & USB 3 http://tinyurl.com/USB3-Reader On 7/10/2016 9:40 PM, Bill wrote: Hi, I am looking for a new card reader.

Re: Card Readers
OK, so I was wrong, well at least out of date. My information was as of several months ago. I've been looking for one of these myself, and I'm now aware of at least two other options that are true USB 3.0 readers. The front panels of all of them show pretty much the same card slots in the same arrangements, probably the same components if not the same complete readers. You can spend a lot more or a bit less, the only difference seems to be that the newer readers can transfer files directly between cards. Where as the Roswell unit I reverenced at Amazon cannot. I suspect it's a firmware rather than hardware issue. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01D31V2L8/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A29Y8OP2GPR7PE Which is the one I'm thinking of getting. I know it looks cheep but with electronics I find that you often don't get what you pay for, you often get a lot less. On 7/10/2016 10:45 PM, P.J.

Re: Card Readers
I use a Belkin 8-in-1 USB 2.0 card reader that has performed fast and flawlessly, but I'm running Mac OS X. Belkin is a good vendor, though, so I imagine that it would be fine on WinXP too. Cost me $24 two years ago. Godfrey

When you plug it into the usb port, it should make a little sound to confirm that it is added. Then click the drives in My computer until you see it. If it does not have a card in any slot it will ask you to insert media.

RE: Card Readers
I think Shell is onto something. Windows XP is pretty good, but can be very unpredictable. My advice is to borrow another reader just to test before buying. Tim Not drunk, just plain Norwegian.

Re: Card Readers
I don't know if this will help but I'm using a FoxConn USB 2.0 multi card reader under Win2K. I've had no problems, just plug it in and it works, no extra software required. Everything is supposed to be harder under Win2K than WinXp at least as far as hardware is concerned.

Re: Card Readers
I got one from Innovations for A$19.95 that works flawlessly: at that price I wasn't too concerned if it had limitations! Unfortunately, it's not branded, except for a serial number which suggests it's a Model DA400, and it was made in China.

Re: Card Readers
Not a multi card reader Joe, but i can tell you my 4 year old Zoi from Microtech works fine on my ME machine and my XP machine.(CF cards) This was a free "gift" from the guy i bought my D1, computers and printers from.
