Upgrading to XP Pro - Memory Stick Issue

[pkharey]

Hello,

I have recently upgraded to XP Pro from Home. I noticed that my Memory stick card reader isn't working anymore. I get the message "Drive Not Ready E:" when I insert my card into the slot. Am I missing a driver? if so where can I get it. I called Sony and they wouldn't help me because I had upgraded my OS.
I have a Sony FJ series. Can anyone help?

The driver is usually in the drivers and utilities ZIP file on www.vaio-link.com

I've downloaded the drivers and installed it but i still get the same error message? I even restarted the computer with the memory stick. Still nothing. Can anyone help?

How did you do the upgrade? Did you really upgrade (recommended) or installed a full version of the OS ?

[pkharey]

It was a full upgrade. Does that matter?

The bestt hing to do is to recover the system again and then upgrade the OS to XP Pro. This should cause less problems.
Just keep in mind that by doing so :
* The licencing sticker on the bottom of the unit is no longer valid
* Sony cannot provide anymore SW support on the Vaio.

I dont' know what you mean by Recover the system.
Do you mean put XP home on it again? how do I recover the system?
