TheTrueDarkOne Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 I have a HP Pavillion Tx1210us and I inserted a SD card. There is a probability that I may have placed it incorrectly inside the slot and now it will not come out. I have used it before with the same card, and I remember "shoving it in" and pressing it with a credit card causing the spring to pop the card out. It is now stuck, so does anyone have any "safe" ideas on how to remove it? I purchased it from Conn's so I called and they said they could do so; however, I am in N. Carolina for school (MOS, USMC) and if I could get it out here that would be preferred. As I am only here for 5 weeks and I would hate to go the whole time without my laptop.

Bubba Bob Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Heh, I stuck an SD card in a PRO Duo slot a few week ago. This is what worked for me: Get a thin, yet stiff piece of paper and slide in between the card and the slot. Put some pressure of the card and pull it out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheTrueDarkOne Posted February 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Tweezers = too thickBobby Pin = Didn't work (right size though) well the rubber came off the bobby pin and got stuck inside :/ and I also noticed a piece of metal come out of the slot. oh and the SD card is still stuck inside. I suppose I will wait until my month and a half are over and just use it. The slot is most likely broken at this point, so I will be making a trip to BestBuy for an external USB sd card reader. oOrah'Muniz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
