Hey guys, didn't know where to post thing, so I thought I'd start here. I have a compact flash reader built into my Epson 875 photo printer. Ever since I installed WinXP, I can't delete from or write files to the CF card. This happens on every card I have. When I try to delete or copy files to the card, I get an error msg saying the disk is write-protected. Any ideas how to remove this? I want to copy pics from my HDD to the CF to put in my Kodak picture frame.

FWIW, this used to work on WIn98 and the card shows up as its own drive letter.
