My Computer Problems???

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

The dvd drive shows the card reader icon while the card reader just shows
the generic removable disk icons. 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. If I change the drive letter of the CD
drive the icon still shows the card reader icon after a reboot.

Anyone have any other ideas on how to fix this???

(really excessive cross-posting snipped)

You posted this earlier and I answered you. I asked you to try and
disable the floppy drives A: and B: (and A: and B: are normally
reserved for floppy drives) in the BIOS and then see what happens with
your card reader. Did you do this?

A and B are reserved drive letters for floppy drivers. Memory card readers
should be assigned different letters.

And generally one single NG is enough to get a reply, in future please don't
multipost.

Sorry Cari for multiposting. This is because I could not see my earlier
post.

I managed to fix the problem.

I had to disable the CD-ROM in device manager and then reinstall drivers for
memory card.
