I (and 2 of my friends) bought this card reader (UCR-61S2B) too and we have the same
problems in Windows (it doesn't recognise an inserted card when its not run off a
ECS motherboard).
We opened it yesterday and found 2 rows of jumpers, 1 on each side of the chip labeled
"NeoDio". I changed the jumpers around to se if it made any change - so far without
any luck :-/
Has someone been more lucky than my ?
