Today I have received a brand new Aviator FX7. I'm still getting to know the machine but first thing I'm confused of is the card reader LED. It's always lit while I'm in windows. I would expect the same behaviour as the HD LED next to it - LED off = no activity, LED on = active. Is that normal? Thanks

Yes, this is normal. It denoted that the card reader is installed and active in BIOS. You can enter the BIOS and disable the card reader and the light will go out, but you will not be able to use the card reader without rebooting and activating it again in the BIOS.

Since I dont use mine right now I keep it disabled, I only enable it when I am going to use it, I dont know how much nattery it uses but disabled it wont use any....and the EX7 is a battery hog......about an hour to an Hor and 15 minutes of life......I also was like you ...I thought it would only come on when in use......I called tech support when I got my EX7 to see if it was a problem and was told it is normal...
