If the card reader gets a static discharge while it is plugged into the computer, bad things can happen. You may or may not even feel or see the spark. Usually, a complete shutdown (not a restart) will fix the problem but sometimes it will not and the card reader is permanently damaged. I have had this happen to me a couple of times.
