Correct, changed the USB mode & it could 'see' the sansa clip internal memory, but not the external SD card drive.

If you have neither of these, let me know, I can pop one in the post if I can find it.
Yes, as I don't have a specific card reader.
That is awfully kind of you, but I think I have taken up enough of your assistance already I think it's probably time to draw this to a close.
Thanks very much all, it's been fun trying, and I've learnt some along the way.
