@Wash, I was tempted to ask on the card reader and assumed the person looking for a solution has tried all available troubleshooting methods. I think the BigBoss did not share one important info i.e  a faulty card reader will freeze, hang up or even the read/write leds will provide hints so what made him/her swap it. I think in future to respond to any tech related threads, we should start by asking one important question : Are you a tech person and at what level? If yes, a lot of assumptions will be made that you have followed steps. If No, we can spare ourselves the unnecessary responses to troubleshooting steps which are also available on the back page of any product manual.
