Media Insertion
To prevent damage to your Media Reader and/or media card, it is important
that the media card be correctly inserted into the Reader. See the drawings
below, which illustrate the proper orientation for insertion of your media card.
Important Note: The All-in-1 Reader & Writer uses a combination slot
designed to accommodate both xD Picture Card and SmartMedia card
formats. Only a single card may be plugged into the combination slot
at any time.

Windows 98 SE, Me, 2000, XP, Vista
1. Insert the Belkin Driver Installation CD.
a. After a few moments, the setup application will appear on your
computer screen.
b. If the setup application does not appear, double-click “My Computer”
then click on your CD-ROM drive icon. This will load the setup
application’s main page.
2. Click the “Install Driver” button.
3. The “InstallShield Wizard” will now start. Click “Next” on each of the
screens that are displayed, then click “Finish”. You should now restart to

Important Operating System Notes:

devices. It is not necessary to install the Belkin driver in order to use
the All-in-1 Media Reader. However, if you wish to take advantage of
the custom drive icons, the driver must be installed. Note: Custom
Icon support is currently unavailable for Vista.
b) Windows 2000 also offers native support for mass-storage devices,
but in versions prior to Service Pack 3, does not support “multi-
LUN” devices. If the Belkin driver is not installed in Windows 2000
versions prior to Service Pack 3, only the CompactFlash slot will be
available. Furthermore, if you wish to take advantage of the custom
drive icons, the driver must be installed.
c) Windows 98 SE does not support mass-storage devices; therefore,

on your operating system, this feature may not give you a prompt
that says it was done. After clicking on eject, you can remove the
card without corrupting the files on the card.

“Unplug or Eject Hardware” button found in the right-hand corner of the
