Review on GE JasHO97936 Card Reader Writer by Adam Tidd

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Okay, the original drivers are buggy, but.

GE doesn't actually make consumer electronics (according to their website). The consumer electronics division was outsourced. The GE Reader uses the PHISON chipset. Updated drivers are available here [.] My chipset uses Pen Drive 1.0 Series PS1006(C). You can open it with your fingernails and check the universal USB interface chipset. I strongly recommend using the NEW drivers for the PS1006 chip released on September 08, 2004. Version: v1.29r000 for Win98 (5.5 MB ZIP file). Hope that helps? Had to investigate this after reinstalling Win98 and losing my installation CD. :)

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Useless features
