I now have my p910 but when I put my pro duo in the adaptor and then into my laptop my computer doesn't recognise it, when I put a normal duo in no problems. Do I need some sort of driver for the pro duo?

thanks

Not as far I know - I am using a Sandisk 256 MB Duo Pro and it works fine. You may have a faulty Duo Pro.

I am using a Sony 512mb and a sandisk 256mb and both have worked successfully in pc and P910 today.

been swapping them back and forth testing videos and pics and stuff

you could try to format the card and see if that resolves your problem

edit: indeed I was suitably impressed when the P910 could display a 5 megapixel (2.2mb) picture from my DSC-T1

It could be the reader.

it's not. it works fine with a standard memory stick. I also have a pcmcia reader too which has the same problem. the memory sticks are fine as they can be read in the p910

ah! I misunderstood initially. I thought you were having problems in the P910 but in fact the problem is in your pc

it sounds like the pc end of things is not pro compatible.

how old are the pc or reader that you are trying to put the memory stick into?

for example, my wifes desktop sony vaio which has a memory stick slot cannot handle pro but my vaio laptop can

@bloomp

My Sony card reader can't read Duo Pro cards as Sony did not have a firmware upgarde for it. But Sony did have a firmware upgrade for my Viao laptop. Have you checked for a firmware upgrade for your card reader?

i know that some readers don't support pro and some don't even have firmware upgrades as the company wants you to buy the new and "improved" reader which supports pro, similar to p90-p910 story, lol

anyway i know that mine apacer mega steno reader doesn't read pro cards but the other one does so my guess is the reader
