Windows doesn't have anything to do with hardware working under Linux, so removing it doesn't make a difference.
And how do you know you can't use them? What error(s) have you gotten? What have you tried? What kind of card reader (Memorystick? SD?) do you have?
To check the card reader, as root, run "dmesg -c", then plug in your card. Run "dmesg", and check for output. If it recognizes the card, you should see something there, and should just have to mount it, if it's not already mounted.
Webcam, run Cheese or another webcam app. If it doesn't come up, post the
relevant portions of "lsusb" and "lspci".
