Old Teac Card Reader Problem
Hi,
Haven't been by for awhile. I see the forum changed again. Seems to work better. Anyway a couple years ago I researched and posted question about my Dell E520 desktop Teac 13-1 card reader. I never did the firmware or driver updates. But now I have a 8gb SD card and want to finally update them. Been reviewing the old threads and my question is....
I downloaded both the Driver R176587.exe and Firmware R176603.exe WHICH DO I DO FIRST? I saw a post by Dell-Chris which said to do the driver first. But wouldn't it make more sense to do the firmware first?

Hi Volvogirl1,
It doesn't make much difference but if Chris said to do the driver first, that's what I would do.

Thanks for the reply.
Ok I did the driver first. Haven't done the fireware yet. 2 questions
1. It came up with a box asking for a file....
TEACico2.dll on USB Card Reader Driver Source Disk #1 is needed.
Copy files from: ________ (browse)
I went into windows explorer and found it under C:Windows\System32 so I put that in. Was that a new one or my original one or does it make a difference?
Then I got a whole bunch of Found New Hardware Wizards Not Passed messages (hit continue anyway). I suppose for all of the kinds of cards.
2. When it was done I went to the Device Manage and looked and it still says the same driver as before:
date 7-1-2001
version 5.1.2535.0
Should it be a different later one now? The Driver support page I printer says Release date 1/16/2008 Version 4.08, A03.

It does not sound to me like the driver update worked.
Ok, so you should have downloaded a file called R176587.EXE. Then you should have extracted the files to C:\DELL\DRIVERS\R176587. Do you see that file in the folder where you extracted the files?

Nope. All I have in C:\Dell\Drivers\R176587 is Imgr32b.exe
Thanks for sticking with me. No hurry.
