I love vista 64 but...

I don't understand why people don't like vista. I have had less issues with my vista than I ever did with my xp. Anyway I do have two issues that maybe someone can help me with.
First, I have a card reader that is hooked up to the usb internal port. I can read sd cards etc. with it. My problem is that if I take out the card and then want to put it back in later the card reader goes away out of my view window under my computer. I then have to unplug my card reader from my mother board and then get lucky and log off and log back in or sometimes have to restart to get it to work and show up again. Does anyone care to comment on this?

My second problem is that if I put in a cd or dvd it will not auto play. I have to go into my computer and double click or go to media player and whatever player I decide and hit play. Any more comments?

Thanks.

The first sounds like a driver issue specific to that card reader.

As for the second, Start -> Control Panel -> Autoplay

I can't seem to find another driver for the card reader.
As for the auto play, I wish it were that easy. That's what I have done over and over but to no avail.

could just be your card reader is crapping out. Mine is on its way out I think, got stuck at slow USB 1.1 speeds now and every so often one of the drives disappear. Crap, and I just placed an order at newegg too, I could have bought a new one! :doh:

Dang, it is only 5 months old.

Try it in another PC to be sure. These card readers seem to be cheap tho. Mine made it almost 2 years before acting stupid. My bro still has his from at least 3 years ago. Friend of mine had one blow up pretty early on tho so who knows.
