Sony VAIO integrated memory card reader upgrade

If your VAIO (or any other laptop) doesn’t recognise SD cards over 2GB and SDHC cards then this Vista driver upgrade will sort it out for you.

Dell, HP, Gateway and many others all use the same Texas Instruments Integrated FlashMedia Controller which appears as “Texas Instruments PCIxx12 Integrated Flash media controller” in the device manager.

I couldn’t find a VAIO drive update that worked but this one from HP did the trick. The only downside is that the memory stick drive does not appear any more but I never used this anyway.

Its now recognising a number of different 4GB SD cards and 16GB SDHC cards.

All the details on possible drivers for your machine are available on this forum thread
