I've scoured the internet and keep finding answers CLOSE to what I need, but not quite.

Here's my equipment: Toshiba Satellite Laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium (works like a charm)
Various different brands of 32gb and 64gb SD cards (Lexar, Samsung, etc.)
And most importantly, I have a brand new Canon Rebel T3I.

I've already had instant success installing and loading ML onto a 2gb card into my Canon T3i, and... BAM! Magic Lantern boots fine when I put the card in! Great options, even an intervalometer and tons of other things! But I can't save diddly squat of video on a 2, 4, or 8gb card.  :-\  So......

My problem: I'm properly installing ML, including the autoexec bin file, etc. to my 32 and 64gb SD cards. I put the SD card in the camera, turn it on, and... NOTHING. I push the trashcan button till the sun goes down, but NO Magic Lantern. I can, however, easily hit MENU and make use of the pre-installed Canon options. My T3i does recognize the SD card, and I can take pics, video, to save on the card, etc. BUT... it does not, will not, cannot seem to boot or load ML from any SD card over 8 gigs in size. I have tried BootCF which doesn't work on my computer, by the way, and I have tried the EOS Boot Loader, which doesn't help it work either. I have also tried to re-update my Canon Rebel T3i firmware from it's stock 1.0.2 to (you've guessed it) 1.0.2. I've done this just for good measure when all else failed (re-installed firmware update 1.0.2). Camera works fine, but my Rebel T3i WILL NOT RECOGNIZE ML unless I use an 8gb or smaller SD card. What is the problem here??? I'm formatting within the camera, copying files to the SD card from my computer -- in effect, every single thing I did to make the 2gb 4gb, and 8gb cards work, but when I put the card into the camera, the cute little trash can mocks me by not loading the ML menu. Anyone think they have an answer for this conundrum? Help would be truly appreciated.  ::)
