Hi, guys/gals. I have the same problem. Mine is an F Series VAIO. I found one way to make it work although I would consider it temporary meansure: In the Device Manager, locate the Ricoh SDXC device under IDE/ATA. Right click on it and select Disable. You’ll then see the device grey out. Then right click again again to Enable it.
Viola, for me at least, it works and I can now read and write to my SD card. I ejected it and put it back in and it’s still working. Not sure if it would continue to work when I reboot.
Hopefully, this could help you read files when you are in a hurry.

I also have a VAIO F series (F23CE5) and the same problem. I found that I have to have a card in the reader during boot to have it work. If I boot without a card in the reader I can’t get it to work.
If I have booted with an SD card in the reader I can take out and insert the card without problems. The card will be recognized. But if I remove the card from the reader and bring the device into sleep mode it doesn’t recognize the reader anymore after I wake up the system.
If I put the system to sleep again, enter the card, and wake up the system, the reader is still not recognized or listed in device manager. If I display hidden devices I can see the greyed out device, but I can’t activate it. I can only deinstall it or update the driver. I tried updating the driver. It didn’t work either.
I tried deinstalling the driver and searching for new hardware with inserted card. The sd reader was not found.
So the only «solution» right now is to re-boot the system with an inserted card. Since I have plenty of programs and windows open for work it is a nightmare and an extreme waste of valuable time. Especially since I can’t bring the system into sleep mode.
