I went on another list and found this... It took some fiddling to find the computer management and the disk management, but my system was recognizing the card, and named it G, the same drive as our corporate shared drive. Finding it this way allowed me to change the drive letter. Don't know WHY it suddenly decided to be uncooperative, but it appears to be happy today...as am I.

I solved my problem.

It was a drive letter assignment issue and can easily be resolved by doing the following:

(Make sure you BB is connected and Mass Media Support is turned on)

1. Goto Control Panel
2. Computer Management
3. Disk Management

In the upper right you should see your Media Card as a letter.

4. Right click on it and chose "Change Drive Letter" and make it something that is not in use that never will be.

This worked perfectly for me. I did uninstall and resinstall the desktop manager, but I don't think I had to. That was just my first attempt.

Good luck.
