Post Kobo Touch and Micro SD Cards

I believe there have been recent software changes in the last update,software version 2.31(r45611,12/7/12 regarding SD micro cards,since i am now getting a message "sd card not recognized etc".
I use an 8 gig Sandisk micro SDHC that worked great until i got this message from my Kobo,so i formated the SD card Fat32 and now the PC will not recognize it anymore,meaning it does not appear in widows explorer.
Nice features of the Kobo include the large book capacity,so I'm not overly concerned with the SD card problems.I was never sorry I bought the Kobo Touch btw.Althou it took some time to get used to.
On another track I've read about many users of SD cards of various models having issues with SD cards unrelated to E-book readers.

There is a hotfix offered by Microsoft regarding sd cards.
"Some Secure Digital (SD) cards do not work correctly on Windows XP-based computers."http://support.microsoft.com/kb/946629
This problem occurs because a defect in Windows XP prevents the native SD driver from being initialized correctly.

Have a Great Day
