My Vaio VGN-FE31H won't read an 8GB sd card.

Is there any form of upgrade to read HC sd cards?

Unfortunately No.

SDHC is completely different from SD and requires different hardware to read the card.

I would look at an external USB card reader like this one: -

Thanks for the swift response. The external reader is a good idea as I can use it on all three laptops in the office. Thought I was going crazy when some sd cards would read and others wouldn't till I realised some were HC format. Cheers:smileyhappy:
