I just bought an HP P7-1414 with Wins 8. When I insert my SD card, the window that should popup to ask to what you want to do with the memory card doesn't popup. I can see it in "Computer" and can access it there but I don't have the choice of what to do. How do I get the popup to work?

Hello!

Go to the Start Screen, and type in autoplay. Then on the right side, click over to Settings, then hit enter.

You can then go through and change settings for each removable media type. For example, you can set it to ask you every time to get that notification toast again.

I have tried that already and it didn't work.

My wife's computer is also windows 8 and I checked her settings in "autoplay" and it's the same setting as my computer. On her computer, I went to "computer", inserted an SD card and right click the device. It had a choice to "open autoplay", when I clicked it, it open the popup window that ask "what do you want to do with the memory card". On my computer, it doesn't have that "open autoplay" as a choice when I right click the SD card reader device. How do I add that in as a choice?
