I can track them down - I've not needed any of these settings since going to 3.3 myself, but they may help in your case.

And these were the ones I was thinking of:

DSOD RELATED IMPROVMENTS

HKLM\Drivers\SDCARD\SDBusDriver
PowerUpPollingInterval - 2 (Dword)
PowerUpPollingTime - 2000 (Dword)
These settings we're borrowed from the Treo 700w.

HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\States \Suspend
dsk1 - 2 (DWORD)
Prevents the SD Card from going into suspend; the main cause of DSOD
cam1 - 4 (DWORD)
Forces the camera to turn off during suspend, saving power.

That thread and those hacks have been around for months. They have gone back and forth saying this is it... no it isnt... this is it... no it isnt and to date they are still experiencing DSOD. Though I applaud their effort there is nothing in there of any known value that I'm aware of and at this time, AKU 3.3 gets rid of DSOD so it's null and void at this point and DSOD that they were dealing with, and this disappearing card problem that appeared in aku3.3, are 2 different things (might be related, but different). I have not had one disappearing card since I deleted sdmemory.dll from the stock windows explorer (using show all files and not using total commander or anything). Why the file was there or where it got loaded from I dont know, but if you simply delete it once the card has disappeared the card comes right back, the file is not rewritten, and no more disappearing card.
