I have a Pavilion 500-065 with a MS-7778 (jasmine) motherboard. I disconnected the SD card from the motherboard (don't ask) Now I can't find where the SD card reader is supposed to connect: The cable at the motherboard end is a flat white connector with four holes in line.
Help? Can you post a picture of the connection?

Card readers are almost always USB devices. I have never seen one that was not. That looks like a half of a USB header - the motherboard USB headers are 10 position, four active, one for orientation, one empty. Here's an example of why USB is my best guess:

Except that yours actually has the fifth, empty position that's used to determine orientation. Here's a whole one:
