Troubleshooting

1. How do I know if I have a Cardbus controller on my laptop?

Some of our PCMCIA Network adapters require the laptop to have a 32-bit PCMCIA slot. You can check to see if your computer has a 32-bit Cardbus card slot from Device Manager.

Step 1 - Right-ClickMy Computer and select Properties.

Step 2 - Select Hardware and then click on Device Manager.

Step 3 - Expand PCMCIA Adapters by clicking the plus sign.

Step 4 - There must be a listing for Cardbus or the PCMCIA slot is only 16-bit.

Make sure your laptop has the latest BIOS. Check with the manufacturer for the latest BIOS upgrade.
