I have a HP Envy x360 laptop, model 15t-aq200, which came with a factory installed SD card reader.  I recently tried to use the SD card reader for the first time and nothing happened.  I have searched for any indication of a driver for this device and cannot find one anywhere.  Neither can I find anything that tells me anything about the reader.  Any suggestions for how to get the reader functioning?  Note: the laptop came with a spinning hard drive.  I had it replaced with a solid state hard drive about a year ago and everything (except the SD card reader) works great.  I don't know if the SD problem arose before or after the hard drive changeout, but it could be a factor.  Thanks for any help you might provide.
