Inspiron 6000 - SD Card Reader (Driver?)
I've installed Win2KPro for work related software compatibility. In my device manager I have an unknown PCI Device (yellow "?"). I'm assuming this is the SD Card Reader as that is the only device that is not functioning/responding. Where do I get the driver for the reader as it's not available at Support, neither in XP or 2000 download areas? I've tried running the Dell Notebook System Software, but I get an error message stating that "this computer does not support this operating system."
Please help, thanks!
Please help, thanks!

SD Card Slot driver problem on Win2k Pro & Winxp Pro with
DELL's Inspiron 6000 is hot issue in Japan too.
BTW I maybe found a solution. Plase download a file from
below URL.
http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/exportcompliance.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&fileid=113408&SystemID=INS_PNT_P4_9200&category=0&os=WW1&osl=en&deviceid=7818&devlib=7&releaseid=R86531&p=HTTP
when you got this file, try execute this file.
the file will be extracted and install driver automatically.
after driver installed, please check SD Card device on DeviceManager. You can probably find a new device "SDA
-Standard Compliant SD Host Controller" in a new category
"Secure Digital Host Controllers".
Please Let's try! good luck!
I'm waiting your report.
Cheers,
Zantei (from Japan)

Thanks, I was hoping this was going to solve all my problems, but I get the same error as before (Using Windows 2000 Pro-SP4):
"This computer does not support this operating system."
Is there anyway to get around this? Perhaps be able to extract the drivers out of the CAB files?
Thanks for any additional info you can provide.

I've an apology in a part of my comment.
At previous week, I tested the file on winxp Pro SP1 only.
Win2k Pro SP4 was not tested. So I didn't know that can't
work the driver on W2k.
I'm interested to this issue(can use SDIO on Inspiron 6000
with Win2k SP4).
Please any information for this issue, If you have.
Thanks.
Best Regards,
Zantei

I found a file for SDIO at Win2k.
ttp://www.maxselect.ru/binary/drivers/notebooks/TravelBook_TZ/SD_Card.zip
CAUTION!
THIS FILE WAS CHECKED BY A VIRUS CHECKER.
BUT I NOT CHECKED THAT WORKING THE DRIVER ON Win2kProSP4 at Inspiron6000.
PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THAT YOUR OWN RISK.
good luck.
Cheers,

It seemed to install, but after the reboot, I now have the following entry in my hardware manager with a yellow !:
SDA Standard Compliant SD Host Controller.
It has the following error:
This device is not working properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)

Problem solved for Windows 2000 Professional :) What we need is the driver for the controller Ricoh R5C841, which controls both the Cardbus and the SD reader. The driver can be obtained from various websites, e.g., ASUS V6V notebook uses the same controller
(http://usa.asus.com/support/download/selectftp.aspx?l1_id=3&l2_id=45&l3_id=0&m_id=1&f_name=CardReader_050118.zip~zaqwedc).
