I have a brand-new Dell Inspiron 15 5100 running Windows 10 that I have been using for about a month. Today I was using the SD Card perfectly fine, although it ejected randomly twice. I left for 2 1/2 hours and came home to find my computer wasn't recognizing the SD Card that I paid quite some money for. I tried a chkdsk and inserted another SD Card, and the other SD Cards worked fine, it was just a 128GB SD Card that wouldn't show up on Device Manager, diskpart's list disk, or the File Explorer window. How can I fix this so I can use it again?

  • Does the computer recognize other SD cards? Does the SD card work in other computers?

Based on OP's comments above, it sounds like the SD card has failed, not (as the title sort of implies) the SD card reader.

There's not really much you can do if a card/flash memory device simply won't be read. If it's a new card it is probably a lemon; I would RMA it and get a replacement.
