Sony Memory Stick reader

Allrighty then. I have been fighting a dell 266 laptop for two days to get it to recognize a Sony DSC-P50 camera (USB). About one out of fifteen attempts gets me the "Removable Drive" in win98's My Computer. The easy solution here I believe is to buy a card reader. Is there any other company besides Sony that makes a reader for the Sony Memory Stick?

Regards

Yes there is. I use one made by Dazzle which was around $30 from the local Circuit City.

Thank you, K.A. Hall. I determined the USB port is dead on the laptop, so I bought a PC Card Memory Stick reader at CC in Springfield. I also bought a dazzle 6-in-1 memory card reader for myself, reads CompactFlash/SmartMedia/Mem Stick etc for 63 dollars.

Regards,
phat
