Hi guys - I'm trying to copy some pictures onto memory card via a a 6 in 1 USB card reader/writer attached to my old Dell PC (running W98). The card reader (Carry UISDMC1S) worked fine (if a bit slow) last time I used it many months ago but now doesn't seem to be responding at all.

The power light is on and the 2 additional external drive icons (I&G) have appeared in the 'my computer' window but when I click on either of them all that happens is that a grey box immediately appears saying "I/G is not accessible - drive not ready" and offering a retry or cancel option. At the same time the 'busy' hourglass is showing constantly yet nothing is hapenning.

Can anyone shed any light as to what might be wrong or what I can do to fix this problem?

Many thanks.
