    The RICOH R5C832/843 Flash Media Driver (for XP and Vista 32-bit), on an Asus notebook, is not compatible with Windows 7 but no warning was given by Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor (both 32-bit and 64-bit). The Windows 7 upgraded notebook is thus handicapped. Though external USB connected card readers can serve the same functions, do any one give me such driver?

    I checked the www.asus.com.tw but only XP driver for the card reader is available. That XP driver works on Vista Home Premium 32-bit, but not installable on Windows 7 64-bit.

    Both my external card readers which ran on XP run happily on 7 Pro x64 without the installation of any third party drivers.

    Search out the Asus support downloads for notebooks with windows 7. There are drivers for ricoh card readers there and one may work.
