cannot see compact flash card

[Guest]

The front of my machine has a slot for a compact flash card (and a USB and a
MMC something). This is a Gateway (therefore came with no documentation).

As far as I can tell Windows XP Home doesn't see it. I have a 1GB card in
the slot. It doesn't show up as a Drive or device as far as I can see.

What do I need to do to read and/or write it?

Thank you - Justine

================================
If you go to...My Computer...your internal
card reader should show up as a series of
'Removable Disks'.

(for example)
Removable Disk (E
Removable Disk (F
Removable Disk (G
Removable Disk (H
Removable Disk (I

One of them will be your Compact Flash card.

Also...the following info may help you
restore AutoPlay.
