Don't buy another reader. Since you already paid money for the Ericsson product, you should get that one working and that is all you need! As promised, here is the link to the driver download.
Link
The
HPM-10 which I bought comes with a SanDisk MultiMediaCard (MMC) and I think they all do. If you check out the driver download page at the above link, select SDDR-11 as that's the model that comes with the
HPM-10. When you go to the driver download page, you'll see that Windows XP is not supported. Don't believe them
I downloaded the drivers for Windows 2000 and installed them on both my desktop (Windows XP Pro) and my laptop (Windows XP Home) and they both worked like a breeze with the HPM-10. The important thing to remember when installing is to be sure that the card is inserted in the reader otherwise Windows might not detect the reader. If it works, you should see an extra drive added to My Computer and you just copy/paste your mp3 files to that drive and enjoy the music!
If you have any problems with it, let me know, I think I've run into most problems while installing it so I might be a good help
Good Luck!
Cheers,
Mimzo

By the way, the drivers on the
Sony Ericsson site also work fine. I personally downloaded mine from the SanDisk site but I think they're the same. Haven't tried the
ones but I don't see why they should be different.

I live in Australia, and had the same problem.
I have found a device called the "Uno SD/MMC Reader/Writer" available from
http://www.conexus.com.au which does the trick perfectly for $69au.
Its USB1.0 and USB2.0 compatible (tested on both) and simply plugs in and detects instantly as a Removable Disk.
If anyone in Australia has the same problem, ignore SonyEricsson's comments about their phones not supporting XP, there is always a way around it.
Also, commenting on the above about leaving it unplugged while booting and using the device manager to refresh ... I tried it and my machine rebooted, which is what prompted me to purchase the USB Reader.

yeah same here I tried installing the WIN2K drivers on my XP pro and after I restarted the PC I got a nice BSOD. How do you work around this?

Strange. I didn't get the BSOD when installing. I got it the first time around when I tried installing the MMC reader/writer with the drivers that came with it but when I installed the downloaded drivers, it worked fine.
I'll try to install it on another Windows XP Pro machine other than the one I've already done and let you know how it goes.
