I need a current driver for kingston SNA-DC/U

Click start control panel administration tools computer management device manager scroll through all of your devices If you see a yellow question or exclamation mark ? ! or a red X you will need to update the drivers for this device right click select update driver/reinstall driver if you can see your usb device but its not working scroll to Ports(Com&Ltd) right click to update driver If you computer came with a motherboard disk the drivers could be on it. Rather doing a driver hunt which can take hours http://download.cnet.com/SlimDrivers-Free/3000-18513_4-75279940.html Windows XP/Vista/7/8 it might take some time being a freeware driver solution Note: it will find all of your outdated drivers This will automatically search for and find the correct driver you will have to update every driver individually once you update you might be asked whether you want to restart or make a system restore point. Click no to both of these then continue updating each driver free then restart once all of the drivers have been updated. also at cnet http://download.cnet.com/2000-20_4.html on the home page you should see a search tab just type in what you are looking for IE: Motherboard name sound drivers. Place a tick in either windows software or all software box. You might have to try a few times to get it right.

How to recover my sd card back to 2gb

If the drive is not detecting at all then the controller chip inside has failed. The best way you can recover this is to find another identical unit and remove the memory chip (it will be the larger of the two) from both drives and solder the one from the faulty drive into the donor, you will need soldering experience and a hot air gun to remove the chips (do not head these up too much, only enough to melt the solder) You will ideally have a electronics microscope to see the small pins that will be soldered. If this sounds like too much work, you could send it off to a data recover company such as ours at Digital Recovery

Where at on the computer does the memory card

This depends what model of your computer you use. Check the sides of a computer or the front. If not, get a SD card to Usb adapter and plug your SD card into the adapter that should be plugged into your computer!

MY USB FLASH DRIVE ISNT SHOWING UP AT ALL ON MY LAPTOP

Hi, Check to see if the drive works in another USB port or in another computer. This should tell you if the problem is with the drive or the computer or port you are using. What kind of computer are you using? Does it give any warnings when you plug the drive in?
