+chorpeac MVC Posted August 3, 2005 MVC Share Posted August 3, 2005 I am running the Vista Beta 1 on a Dell 700m, and I am not able to use the memory card reader on the side. It says a driver didn't install. Anyone have this working? I talked to a dell rep on the dell chat, and he provided me with a link to a driver, but I was unable to get the link because the window closed!! Anyone have a solution? The memory reader is a Texas Instruments PCI7420 device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karma_police Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Did you try with the Windows XP drivers? get them from Dell.com > Support > Downloads & Drivers. Or here :p http://ftp.us.dell.com/chipset/R85896.EXE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+chorpeac MVC Posted August 3, 2005 Author MVC Share Posted August 3, 2005 Yep that was the first thing I tried...It partially installs it, but then it still says it has a problem during the installation. I gave it a try anyways, stuck my sd card in, and it just never finds it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+chorpeac MVC Posted August 3, 2005 Author MVC Share Posted August 3, 2005 Ok Cool, here is what I get when it tries to install the latest Dell drivers they have on their site. It looks like their drivers are specifically for XP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
