I am running Windows XP Home Edition and trying to off load the pictures from a HP Photo smart C 618 which I was able to do two weeks ago and now trying again I get this "safely remove hardware" when it is set to PC.
I checked the properties and the unit is working properly.
In Device Manager checked everything their, everything working.
Tried another com and was able to view total flash drive.
The item location is zerow.
What is going on?
Re-install the software supplied with the camera, or buy a card reader and put the memory card into that instead of attaching the camera to the PC. The card reader connects to a USB port on your PC and requires no manual driver installation as it's built into Windows.
I did install a Rosewall internal 3.5 reader and as long as it was pluged in to the board I had the same icon lit for safely remove device.
I believe their is some setting turned off that I can not find.
I have three other flash cards and tried them all with the same results.
