I have had something similar happen to me on one occasion. My solution was
to go into BIOS, disable the internal USB for the card reader.
Full power down and restart.
Then reenable in BIOS, with another full power down and restart. It then
found the usb/card reader.
(I suspect that it would also have been OK to unplug the USB connector
inside the case but BIOS was easier in my case).
