SYMPTOMS
When you are using two storage cards, the folder names that represent the storage cards may change from the original names when you suspend and resume your computer. For example, the names &quot;Storage Card&quot; and &quot;Storage Card2&quot; may change to &quot;Storage Card3&quot; and &quot;Storage Card22.&quot;



CAUSE
Windows CE uses card and folder names based on information that is obtained from the inserted cards. When you use cards from the same manufacturer that have the same capacity, Windows CE cannot distinguish the difference between the two cards. Therefore, the folder names that represent the two cards may change from the original names, depending on the order in which the cards were inserted.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
