Travel Technology - Reading SDHC media

I bought a new camera for me. It has capability to use SDHC media. I bought a 4&8 gig media. they are formatted differently.

when I plug the schc card into the correct slot for an SD media on my '06 compaq amd, the computor locks up. screen is wiped. get a message that control panel is not functioning on a cntl alt del.

same thing on an 06 ASUS amd.

now what??

You'll need an SDHC reader. I'm fairly confident that the reader on your '06 machine won't support SDHC. Find yourself a SDHC card reader and you'll be ok.

found the words in a bestbuy ad. could not find this on the web with google:

Compatible exclusively with digital cameras and camcorders that support Secure Digital High Capacity memory cards; Note: legacy Secure Digital devices are not compatible.
