I rebuilt my graphics PC with a backup file from a few months ago. While I was updating WinXP and other applications I neglected the CF readers so they showed yellow "!" in the device manager.
For some fortuitous reason I picked up the Lexar RW019 Firewire reader and it was so hot I burned my fingers. Rats!( actually I used another ephitet) I had a brand new 4GB Kingston CF card in it. The CF card was so hot it smelled....you know..that "good grief I just blew $240.00" smell?
I threw it on the exhaust fan outlet on top of my PC to cool it. Well, the card still works; my D2H still can see all the images..
Is that supposed to happen...if you put a CF card in a reader which hasn't had its drivers installed? Any ideas?
