I work for an IT company in Oklahoma and we are all stumped on an problem we are having with one of our contracted clients. This issue isn't to just one computer or to one model of card reader. It has happened with internal (which we install) as well as external.
When we insert an SD or micro SD card into ANY card reader, it removes all of our drive locations excluding C: and D: drives.
This includes any mapped network drives we have installed or any USB devices that fall under "USB Mass Storage" as well as any smartboards, phones or tablets plugged into the computer as well.
We have done this on 15 different computers using 4 different card readers, 5 SD cards, and 3 different micro SD cards. All of the computers were running Windows 7 and all were upgraded using the free upgrade from Microsoft (grrr less contract money for us). Drivers for each card reader has been installed. Drivers have been uninstalled and reinstalled on each computer when the issue first started happening.
It is boggling our minds. It is not so much that it is a big issue at all. It isn't. They rarely use SD cards at the location. Mostly it was from cameras used for various reasons for documentation. But, it irritates me that we can not figure it out.
