Hello,

I have an USB Flash card reader as drive U:
I want to read and write the complete flash card.
With CreateFile() and "\\\\.\\U:" I can only read Bootsector, FAT, 
directory and data area.

How to read partition table, means the sectors in front of bootsektor?

any idea?

thanks
best regards
Martin
