Has anyone tried adding the Pansonic card reader to their computer in addition to a mult-card reader allready installed?

I don't think I gave enough information. I would like to keep my multicard reader and add the Panasonic cardreader usimg the install program from the SZ-CB7 writing kit. In other words will the computer "see" the reader that came with the kit? If I change the Panasonic reader to another drive than the one set by the SZ-CB7 will it work? On one computer I had to remove the multi-card reader before it would work. This computer has XP. Thanks.

In XP you can assign drive letters in Administrative Tools/Computer Management if you have Administrator status. Go to Disk Management and right click on a drive and you can assign the letter it will use. I would be inclined to remove the multireader, install the Panasonic drivers, then the Panasonic reader, a card and use Jukebox etc. Then plug the multireader in again. The multireader will use native Windows drivers so hopefully this way they won't interfere with the CB7.
