Hi, Thank you for replying. I apologies for the delayed response. In your previous post you tried SFC scan and you found that some files were corrupted. System File Checker is a utility in Windows that allows users to scan for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files So please refer to the below article and fix the corrupted files.

Once your computer files are repaired please follow the below steps and check if it helps you: 1. Open up device manager - right click in the very bottom left corner in desktop mode and choose device manager from the menu. 2. Expand the 'Disk drives' group. 3. Insert the SD Card - you should see the SD card appear in the Disk drives group, maybe after a few seconds.

4. Right click the SD card and choose 'Uninstall'. 5. After it has uninstalled click on the 'Scan for hardware changes' icon (far right in the icon bar).

The computer should detect the SD card again. 6. Restart the computer. I hope this information helps. Please do let us know if you need any further assistance. I just ran into a similar problem. The reader saw the card, but not the contents of the card.

The SD card from hubby's camera, which has worked just fine for a couple of years, but last night when I put it into my PC (HP Envy Running Win 8.1.1 with all updates), I could see that the SD drive could see that there was a card in the reader, but not that there was anything on the card. This card showed pictures on it both in the camera and also in his PC upstairs (which is running Win 7). I also checked other SD cards in my PC and the contents of those cards were viewable. So I don't think it is my card reader, nor does it seem to be an issue with his card. I was at a loss and eventually just downloaded the contents on his PC and copied them to mine via a shared folder on our LAN.

I even tried reformatting the card and taking new pictures, but my PC still failed to see the pictures on the card (it could see the card, not the contents). But I'm still at a loss as to why this happened. Any thoughts? After a full day and a half looking at this issue and trying anything I could find, I decided to 'force the issue'. Open the Device Manager.

Driver

Open the Universal Serial Bus controllers. Delete the Alcor Micro USB 2.0 Card Reader driver. I scanned for Hardware Changes, and to my surprise the Alcor node did not reappear in the USB controllers list. So, maybe out of force of habit, I restarted the system. After the reboot, I opened the Device Manager again, opened the USB Controllers node again, and found that the Alcor was still not there. However, in Disk drives, I found a new node called 'Multiple Card Reader USB Device'. I plugged in my SD Card and it came right up!

Further tests indicate that the fix is stable and continues to work. Adding to the mystery, I looked at the event log and while that node had actually existed since the machine's birth (in 2013, as a Win8.0 box), it was mysteriously deleted on November 5, 2014. I upgraded from Win8.0 to Win8.1 on September 9, 2014, so the deletion did not happen in the Win8.1 upgrade. FWIW, the machine in question is an HP Pavilion p6-2350, with Quad-core AMD, (only) 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD. I have a new Desktop PC built from components, with an Akasa Interconnect SD card/USB 3.0 reader module. I had windows 8 and SD card reader worked fine. Now I have 8.1 and it does not work any more.

The module is physically ok, I tried Ubuntu liveCD and was able to read and write SD cards. But not with windows 8.1. When I insert a SD card, Windows plays the 'new device found' jingle, led light for card insertion is lit in the Akasa module. After a while the 'device removed' jingle is played. Inbetween nothing is visible in 'This PC,' SD card is nowhere to be seen. If I keep the SD card inserted, this thing keeps looping, device found jingle, then device removed and device found again.

This happens with SD cards, all of them. I tested them on another PC, nothing wrong with the cards. If I insert a MicroSD card in the Akasa, that one works. So do all the USB devices.

I have browsed your data bases and the internet. As this thing works in windows 8 and Ubuntu, the problem must be somewhere in Windows 8.1.

I have no knowledge if it stopped working right when I installed 8.1 or later. So far I have: 1.

Removed the driver for SD card in Device Manager and then booted and had Windows reinstall it. Updated BIOS to the latest version. Updated all mandatory and relevant update packages to windows 8.1. Tested clean boot with minimum software, only mandatory windows. Removed drive F: from Device Manager.

Ran 'Hardware devices are not working or are not detected in Windows'. Every time I run it, it says it fixed two items: 'Microsoft Fix It Solution - MoreOption' and 'Hardware changes might not have been detected'. Ran the System File Checker tool (SFC.exe) in Command Prompt (as Admin). Got the answer: ' Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.'

Ran the DISM tool in prompt. 'No component store corruption' and then 'Component store corruption was repaired' 10. Ran update 11. Changed power saver options for PCIE, to off 12. Turned off the fast startup in power options 13. Installed USBDeview, removed all extra USB devices and USB storage drive letter H: and USB 3.0 card Reader, and rebooted, (Windows reinstalled those that are in use) And I have done these: So far I have tried everything on this thread, except reinstall. Windows 8.1 does not work.

What should I do? After a full day and a half looking at this issue and trying anything I could find, I decided to 'force the issue'. Open the Device Manager. Open the Universal Serial Bus controllers. Delete the Alcor Micro USB 2.0 Card Reader driver. I scanned for Hardware Changes, and to my surprise the Alcor node did not reappear in the USB controllers list. So, maybe out of force of habit, I restarted the system.

After the reboot, I opened the Device Manager again, opened the USB Controllers node again, and found that the Alcor was still not there.

FWIW, the machine in question is an HP Pavilion p6-2350, with Quad-core AMD, (only) 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD. This looks like my salvation. I have a HP Pavillion (beats audio) Intel core i.3 8 GB. I bought it from a local store as a returned item or scratched item (scratch on lid). It is assured to be a few months old.

But i notice 2014 mentioned on certains things. Also the machine (or internet connection ) is oddly mentioned as metered. Whatever that is. My big hobby is photographic work and at the moment I cannot do anything as my card readers are not being read, Theres a sound on plug in but no drive appearing. I am quite distraught as I'm disabled and photowork is a lifeline for me How safe or how possible is it for a amateur to try this solution? I dont want to delete something costly in error.
