memory card reader is not mounting

[Gabor Szabo]

I am not sure if that was the only problem but it seems the card
reader was partially broken.
Plugging the memory unit into another machine that has a built-in
reader made wonders.
That machine also runs Windows 7 but I don't think that was the point :)
