SDHC Cards

Can I use a 4gb SDHC card in my XPS 1210 running Vista RC1?

    Well, I just got a sdhc 8GB card, and my 1210 won't even see it...
     
    Hoping there are new ricoh drivers coming soon...

    Have we had a statement from Dell on this? I'm just about to buy a 12 megapixel camera and 8 GB SDHC card but that's not much good if the M1210 won't read the card!

    Hmmm. Perhaps I should have been more direct but I hoped that someone at Dell would be monitoring posts. Please Dell, can we have a statement on the compatibility of 4GB and 8GB SDHC cards with the M1210. Thank you.

    This still doesn't answer whether 4GB or 8GB SDHC can be used on M1210. Can we get a straight answer please?

    Thank you, DELL-Jimmy P, for those links. As JohnT50 says, not quite a statement, but useful nonetheless. I have obtained a 4 GB SDHC from Sandisk and I can report that it works with my M1210 (at least, I created a few images on it from a Canon IXUS and was able to read them on the M1210). I did the low-level format on the camera so I can't be sure the laptop will also format the card but it looks promising so far. I have an 8 GB card arriving soon and I'll report how that goes.

    For any SDHC Cards to work with windows XP SP2 you need to get the hotfix at microsoft.com. You send them a request and they send you an email to download and install. Now my PNY 4 GB SDHC works with my inspiron 6000.

    I'm doing research to find out if I'll need an external SDHC card reader, or whether the in-built SD reader on my Inspiron 6000 (purchased in Aug 2006) would handle SDHC. First I checked the owner's manual -- it just says SD and doesn't mention SDHC. Then I checked Dell's web site -- it doesn't say. Then I checked the forums -- there is a mix of opinion. I phoned Dell Technical support and was told "no, it only supports SD". Then I re-checked the forums -- above in this thread a person says it worked after downloading a patch from Microsoft. So I phoned Dell technical support again, explained the above, and this time, after some research, they say the Inspiron 6000 in-built card reader slot supports SD and SDHC format. Sounds like the Inspiron 6000 in-built card reader will support SDHC. (You could build up the credibility of this by posting if you know it works on your Inspiron 6000).
