Hi, @johan56 :

 

The Vista driver should work...

 

This package contains the driver for the Ricoh 5-in-1 Card Reader for the supported notebook models and operating systems.

That is the Ricoh Card Reader driver. I am not aware of a Windows 10 driver for it.

Lenovo has one for Ricoh- it may work if the Vista driver doesn't?

Hi, Cheryl:

 

I tried to explore the driver file you posted, and it is one of those where you can't see the hardware ID's for the devices.

 

Maybe it will, and maybe it won't.  But I'm thinking won't.

 

Usually those kind of drivers that only have the .rsrc folder, and the other files that can't be opened/explored are for USB devices, and the card reader in the dv6xxx is not a USB card reader.

 

I do know that I have given the Vista 5-1 card reader driver to several forum members who installed W7, 8, 8.1 and 10 on their dv6xxx notebooks, and it worked.

 

I can't think offhand of anyone who stated it didn't.
