My DVD drive is drive I:\ and my memory card reader is drive A:\ and B:\.

The dvd drive shows the card reader icon. I have tried deleting
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\DriveIcons
but the icon comes back after reboot. I have also uninstalled and
reinstalled the drivers but no luck. Anyone have any other ideas on how to
fix this???

A: and B: are normally reserved for floppy drives. If you don't have a
floppy, go into the BIOS and disabled A: and B:. Then see if Windows
assigns the memory card reader correctly.
