Last time I checked CPUs and microcontrollers don't speak Chinese.

I have my AV set to scan removable drives. Although, my concern is stuff in the firmware of whatever that isn't, or wasn't when I heard about it a year or so ago, detected by AV.

Hehn hehn hehn hehn....I dunno, but that's what it was showin.
I just looked back. It is (or was) an 32GB secure SD SDHC digital Flash Memory card camera. I guess I should've done more research?
Anyways, it's completely un-responsive now. On either reader, Windows says 'insert a disc into drive...' . My other (SD) card reads fine in both readers. I just put the above one in my camera, which then said the card needed formatting, and after it starts to format the camera goes back to 'card needs formatting'. I think the card took a ---steaming pile of meadow muffin---.
Spaz Monkey:
Several things leap to mind. See if you can use the "SD Memory Card Formatting Software Ver.2.0" to reformat your card. (Google it). Someone mentioned if it was a SD card vs. SDHC (high capacity). Depending on how old your stereo is, it may not like your card since it is SDHC. Had an old original Compact Flash camera (think thick paperback book size) that couldn't use a 128MB card.
Ummon:
No no no no no......you mis-read. When it did work, files that were readable on my computer were readable on the stereo (which, by the way, is full USB 2.0 compatible). Now the card is completely unresponsive on the computer. Computer doesn't even see it, so when I right-click on it, XP says 'insert disc into drive'.
And, no surprise, when I got some version of that software and installed and loaded it, the select drive box is grayed out.
