Try formatting on the MPC3000 the card's hybrid partitions at 32mb or less.
Windows will only allow 26 drives thus labeling them alphabetically A to Z. I could only get 23 of the 26 hybrid partitions to show on my wife's Win8 64bit laptop.

On a Mac, all 26 of the microSD's hybrid partitions are shown. [*pops collar]

I've followed the steps of the guy you posted the link to on a VMware with a win 7 x86 boot but its not recognizing my sd card reader integrated in my laptop.

Ill try with a microsd to usb adapter and report back.

I think it might work.

I just tried installing XP pro x86 on VMware and still have the same result. The microSD usb adapter get recognized as a single drive (E:) With nothing inside.

I dont understand why you guys get multiple drive mounted as a result and I dont.

Whats different or what have you done to make it work ?
