Problen with SDCard in Windows 8.1

[Chris G]

I would move the data from the card and back it up somewhere on another PC or drive. Then format the card fat32, but not the quick format. It will take a long time it should solve the issue. Is it a brand 64gb card? Copies and clone can give you errors and issues.

No way to make it work under W8.1.

It works properly under Android, but the driver gives an error under W8 (error 10).

Same problem after formatting and trying NFTS also. It is a Kingston SD Card.

I got my Vi10 yesterday and iniital impressions are positive. I did some windows updates and then hit the same problem as above – SD card device code 10 error. I am not sure if the driver was updated during the windows updates or not but I’m rolling them back to see. The card works fine in another laptop and its a known name from a reputable supplier. Has anyone else hit this problem and anyone got ides to fix ?

Thanks

I have a working copy of SD card reader driver. I only use 16GB card so i don’t know if it works with 64GB card, but if your unreadable card is because of Windows, accidentally update driver, please try this in attachment.
Copy (replace if necessary) to C:/Windows/System32/drivers

Hi,
Thanks for that. That is the driver that I had. I updated from 8.1 to Windows 10 to see if that helped and I got some new drivers but the problem remained.
However, I am now pretty sure its down to sd card /manufacturer/windows/device compatibility. I gathered a load of sd cards from friends and got odd results. My 64gb Lexar micro sdxc didn’t work nor did 2 of my 32gb cards. A 32gb Samsung sdhc however worked fine as did a Transcend. I intend to get a 64gb Samsung sdhc as I know the 32gb works and I will see if that is ok.
So I think this is a compatibility issue more likely down to the hardware rather than the o/s ? but having said that the 64gb worked ok on the android side!!

Well if this information helps,me too using Transcend memory card. I also tested another 32 Gb transcend and worked well.
Yoo bad i did not have any other brand to test. All my memory card is from transcend

I just got my 64gb Samsung micro sdxc card and it picked it up no problem in windows and android.

Do you think a Samsung Evo 64G Micro SD card will work on both Windows, and android?

I have a 1TB Western Digital External hard drive that works well on Windows in NTFS, but doesn’t work on android just yet (haven’t rooted yet, to use speacial apps).
