After applying the latest drivers and firmware up date to my Surface Pro 3, the SD card reader has now gone! I have re-installed the Surface pro 3 image and it is still missing. No matter what SD card I insert, the driver does not show. USB port works great and the SD cards will work fine in a SD reader plugged into the USB port - just not in the SD card reader slot.
I don't think it is a hardware issue although that is always possible. The port disappeared after the update and going back did not fix. I noticed that the BIOS does now have the ability to turn on and off the SD card port, but changing it did not seem to affect the being able to see the card.
Is there any way to go back to a previous firmware? I suspect the latest is the one that killed/disabled the port...
