If the memory card is recognized and readable in a USB card reader, the memory card is fine. If the 6910 does not recognize the memory card, either the card is not properly seated in the 6910 card reader slot, the card slot is not connected to the main board of the 6910 or you need a DIFFERENT device driver for the 6910.

How do I install an SD memory card on my Gateway laptop-

Get a USB card reader with a microSD slot. There are a lot of choices. https://www.amazon.com/Anker-Portable-Reader-RS-MMC-Micro/dp/B006T9B6R2 is the simplest type. Others have a USB cable. More expensive models have a detachable (replaceable) USB cable. See https://www.amazon.com/sd-card-reader/s?k=sd+card+reader for more models. Most of these do not need special drivers to work with most OS versions. (Note: I don't know about ChromeOS drivers. Most Unix versions will mount the reader easily.)

I've seen B&H Photo Video (bhphotovideo.com) sell various SD and microSD cards with the card reader included for free. There are also SD adapters for the microSD cards so you can get a reader without a microSD slot.

(my household has several USB card readers. Some are USB 3.0 and the others are older USB 2.0 models. You do need to be very careful handling the card and put it into the reader with the correct orientation. I've seen the microSD cards get damaged when someone moves them between slots.)

What memory card do I buy for my Kodak easyshare C530 camera.l The one I purchased was a SD card and it would not allow me to format.

http://www.kodak.com/eknec/PageQuerier.jhtml?pq-path=7551/7269&pq-locale=en_US&expression=sd

The above link goes to a site that describes how SD or SDHC cards can be used in newer C cameras such as yours.

Also, the following should be noted regarding sd cards:

Question : Why doesn't my camera recognize the SECURE DIGITAL (SD) or MultiMedia (MMC) memory card that is in the camera? Answer : Your camera may not recognize the memory card inside for one of the following reasons:
  • The card is not fully inserted in the camera. Turn off the camera, insert a card into the slot, then push to seat it.
  • The card may be corrupted. Reformat the memory card.
    CAUTION: Formatting deletes all pictures and videos, including those that are protected. Removing a card during formatting may damage the card.
  • The card may not be a certified SD or MMC card. Purchase a certified SD or MMC memory card.
See your camera's user manuals for more information. Go to KODAK Product Manuals, and select the manuals you need.

How to use the memory card reader

To access the memory card reader without using the software provided, follow the steps below. If no card is inserted, the green light on the card reader will be on.
Insert a memory card.
• Insert the card with the brand name label facing up.
• If there is an arrow on the card, make sure it points toward the printer.
• If needed, make sure you connect the memory card to the adapter that came with it before inserting it into
the slot.
Wait for the light located to the right of the slots on the printer to come on. The light blinks to indicate the memory
card is being read or is transmitting data.
• The printer recognizes one memory card at a time. If you insert more than one memory card, a message appears
on the display prompting you to remove all memory cards inserted.
• If a USB flash drive is inserted together with the memory card, a message appears on the display prompting you
to choose which memory device to use.
When reading of images is complete, the number of photos found appears on the display. Then you can make your selection and print. these are the types of memory card supported by you printer.

How can i use sd/mmc memory card reader on my laptop? ia am using dell inspiron 1525 model?

The SD/MMC memory slot is already configured to read standard and HDSD cards. Just remove the DELL blank from the slot by pushing it in until it clicks and release it. Then pull it out. Insert the SD/MMC card into the slot and push it in until it clicks. The DELL Blank is shorter than an actual SD/MMC card, so don't try to push the SD/MMC card any further than the 'click'. Remove by pushing in until it clicks, release, remove.
