SD card reader + Flash drive do NOT work with 2k, but OK with XP

[kimiraikkonen]

Hello,
I have a system it has been working OK with several USB devices such
as flash drives. I've bought a SD card reader and connected, it's
recognized successfully but it generated lots of event id: 17 and 168
error logs in "event viewer". I couldn't mean because i was copying bi-
directonal good with no error logs.

Additionaly, i connected my flash drive while USB SD card reader is
being connected, but it couldn't be recognized... If i unplug SD card
reader, flash drive works very good.

I have SP4 and i tried these hardwares on another XP SP2 machine with
NO problems.

Why does Windows 2000 have lots of bugs especially for new drives like
SD readers?

The error logs were so frustrating. The message appears in "event
viewer" everytime i access or everytime OS access during boot up with
no specific dialog box message:

RSM cannot manage library <storage device name>. It encountered an
unspecified error. This can be caused by a number of problems
including, but not limited to, database corruption, failure
communicating with the library, or insufficient system resources.


I don't know but i haven't had this on XP SP2, however i may re-try on
XP if it appears or won't.

If anyone explain these, i'd be very happy:

1-Why SD card reader and flash drive do not work when they're
connected at the same time? (Flash drive can't be recognized till i
unplug SD reader)

2-Why are there lots of error logs appear in "event log" when i use my
SD-reader?

Thanks...

Are you using an USB hub? Maybe there is not enough power to have the
2 devices in the same time. See also these links for various comments

What brand names are the SD card reader and the flash drive?
