Problem w Win 7 & internal card reader

I have a clean install of Windows 7 64-bit. I am having a problem with my internal card reader (USB 2.0, connected to mobo USB header. Mobo is a Gigabye G780 board, forget the exact model). If the computer is booted with no cards in the reader, when I insert a card in the reader, it is not recognized as a drive in Win 7, no plug-in sound, no autoplay, nothing. If I boot with a card in the reader, the card is recognized as a drive. I've had the same problem both with a Sabrent and Rosewill card reader; also with SD and CF cards, so it does not appear to be card specifid or reader specific.

If I look in device manager, there is the yellow triangle/exclamation point next to the entries for the various reader slots. But of course, there is no external driver required for the reader.

Anyone have any clue how to fix this? Thanks
 
Either the mobo chipset driver is wrong or corrupt or maybe there is some setting in the BIOS for the on board USB port that you need to change. Do you also have a USB card installed ? ? If you do, try connecting the internal card reader to an internal port on the plug in USB card and see if that helps.
