From: CharlieRJ on 21 Apr 2008 03:25 My CF slot worked fine until I tried using a 2 GB CF card. Now it no longer recognizes any CF memory card or any other CF device including WF Wireless LAN Card and CF GPS Receiver. Hard reset did nor solve. Using the Resco Registry Editor it appears that the CF driver is missing. My SD slot works fine. I don't need CF for memory, but I would like to be able ro use my wireless LAN CF card and my GPS CF Card which had worked until I tried that 2GB CF flash memory card. . Registry shows SD card driver and other stuff, but no CF driver info. It just seems strange that it would suddenly quit working after trying a 2 GB CF card. I found a post on HP site about CF problems caused by wrong comm port being assigned to CF card and it told where to look under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/DRIVERS/ACTIVE. The SD card was in registry, but no CF card. But under DRIVERS/ACTIVE/BLOCKED, it appears that Samsung Flash driver is blocked. Anyone know how to get the driver back or what registry location to use. Is there any registry repair software for IPAQ 2210? Thank you, Charlie

You've not done a restore using SPB backup have you? This has exactly this effect.
