VMC-MD1 USB Cable Lead for SONY Cyber-Shot Digital Camera

My computer has a card reader, but whenever I put a memory card in it, it tells me it's unformatted and do I want to format it. Obviously not, since that would wipe the card. So I'd resigned myself to not being able to use it and using USB instead, since more devices have USB connection capability.

We've got a Sony Cybershot digital camera, I wanted to get the photos off since the card was full, and danged if I could find the stupid cable for plugging it into the USB. So I ordered one.

With great anticipation, I plug it in, and... nothing. WTF?

So now I'm really down in the valley, becuase I can't get the cable to work and the card reader still won't read the card.

So I did what any tech savvy person person would do; I restarted me computer.

Now put me in a court of law and I'll swear up and down that I've restarted before and then attempted to use the card reader without success, but after this restart I was able to use the reader to access the Sony memory card, and all the memory cards from the rest of the devices cluttering up the house.

So i didn't need the cable after all.
