    I have a 16GB SDHC card that I sometimes use in my mini 9.
    I have no problems with my 4GB SDHC cards, but the 16GB card is flaky in the mini 9. When I boot up the mini 9 with the 16GB SDHC card in, it takes a lot longer for windows to load than if the SDHC card was not inserted.

    My real problem is the mini 9 not being able to detect the 16GB SDHC card. Most of the time when I insert the 16GB SD card, it will not recognize it and it will not appear in My Computer.
    I have to reboot a few times, put it in standby, uninstall then reinstall the SD card reader drivers before it will finally show the SD card in my computer.

    I am running windows XP ULCPC SP3. If anyone has any ideas about the problem, please share.

    Thanks :)
