The drivers are part of the notebook system software.

I had the same problem the driver that you need is part of XP SP2. I went a week trying to get that thing to work. Then I just installed SP2 and voila it worked!

i'm in the process of doing all the updates. thanks for the input. in device manager, it shows that i have a PCI something. that doesn't have drivers installed for it. I can't figure out what it is. if someone could help me out that would be awesome. thanks

So it doesn't mention anything about a "secue digital host controller" under device manager?

Once agian, the Notebook System Software from Dell's download page should fix the problems.

I just tried a 16MB MMC from my new Canon camera and it doesn't seem to be working. I've got a 512MB SD card arriving soon that will hopefully work.

I never got my SD card working either. I have all the drivers and it shows up in the Control Panel -> System -> Hardware list, but nothing that I can access.

Well, for what it's worth - my 512MB Kingston SD card arrived today and works fine in my i6000d. As soon as I insert the card, it shows up under "Devices with Removable Storage" as a "Secure Digital storage device."
