I posted this in hardware but maybe it should be here; I just installed an internal 16-1 USB card reader and can't seem to get Windows XP sp2 to recognize it correctly. I've read some similiar topics on the issue and it seems like sometimes the USB drivers are correctly found and other times they are not.
I was wondering if anyone has a card reader and could send me their USB drivers, or suggest something to try. Thanks.

hmm, I thought XP didn't need separate drivers for USB card readers. Who manufactured the card reader?

Its pretty much a generic card reader said that XP should recognize it. But its coming up as a Unknown Device in device manager.

what motherboard do you have? maybe try updating the bios and/or chipset drivers if they are out of date.
