The imagemate 3.0 USB3.0 cant download CF cards with Windos 8 and USB 3.0 port. It works fine thru the USB 2.0 port but not with USB 3.0. SD, MicroSd work with USB 2 and 3.

Anyone have this problem too ?

I have the same problem with a Kingston USB3 card reader, but under W7 and W8. Its fine using USB2 and SD cards are fine.

No idea whats going on but i replaced it with another card reader and all is fine.

One thing you may notice, if you are using an Intel MoBo with on board USB3, is that transfer speeds will be lower than expected under W8.

Apparently Intel haven't released any USB 3.0 extensible Host Controller Driver's for W8 yet, so although USB3 works its not up to speed on certain MoBos.

Bit of a pain really.
