8 gig SDHC card problem

[guiness92]

I picked up an 8 gig sdhc card for my camera tonight from best buy. It was only 35 bucks so I figured why not. Well the card works great in my camera, but my computer doesnt recognize it as all.

Is there a driver that I can download to make the 15-1 card reader built into my computer recognize this stupid card?

Computers right now wont autoload any card 4 gig and up. Just double click on the my conputer and you'll see it there.

well I did some research and found that the sdhc cards use a different format than the sd cards. The camera recognizes it because it is a newer device and has the new format on it already. unfortunately my computer is about 3 years old and the card reader built into the computer does not recognize the format. I can download drivers all day and it still wont work. the only solution was to either get an older style card, or pick up a cheap card reader that recognizes the new format. So for 12 bucks I got a new 15-1 card reader.
