   EV>Howdy! Tom,   
      
   EV>HP put a card reader in my XP pc but it will only read up to 2GB.   
      
   EV>I use a SDHC to USB2 adapter to read any SDHC cards by inserting it   
   EV>into a USB2 slot on the pc.   
      
   EV>After I bought the XP pc HP sent one BIOS update but the ability to   
   EV>read SDHC cards wasn't in that update.   
      
   EV>Figureing out Work Arounds is part of the computer game, isn't it?   
      
   EV>73   
      
   Sure Is and that males it fun, A Little frustrating but still fun   
   for me.   
      
   I have become adicted to USB-3 Flash Drives. The old hurry up and wait   
   of USB-2 is gone and I do not miss it.   
   I have also shifted to USB-3 Adapters for externial hook up od Hard   
   Drives also.   
   As a side note I have an excess 350 Gig Western Digital IDE Hard Drive.   
   Are you intersted?
