It's possible that your card reader is only able to read smaller SD devices. The original SD spec was limited to 2GiB (some 4GiB cards existed but I think they were non-compliant). SDHC extends this to 32GiB devices and SDXC allows up to 2TiB. > Thanks again for all the help so far. Much appreciated... That would be my first guess if you aren't even getting media change events when the card is inserted - it sounds like the reader itself does not recognise the card as valid media.
