Cards that Require Only
CARDTALK.SYS
The Super Client driver, CARDTALK.SYS controls the interface
between the computer and any PC Card you insert in a PCMCIA
socket. The cards described in this chapter work with CardTalk and the
drivers provided on the distribution diskette without requiring
additional software. These include:
•
Fax/modem cards
•
Special serial port cards
•
ATA devices (rotating media, solid-state cards, such as SunDisk
cards and other solid-state ATA PC Cards)
•
SRAM and Flash memory cards
•
Read-only memory (ROM) cards
Other PC Cards may require software that is usually provided by the
manufacturer of the card. Chapter 5,
Cards that Require Additional
Drivers
, discusses using these cards.
Fax/Modem Cards
Originally designed to add communications capability to portable
computers, PC fax/modem cards are also being used with desktop
computers. For example, with a Card Reader installed, you can share a
single fax/modem card between your portable and desktop computers.
The Card Reader has its own speaker, which connect to the speaker
output of the fax/modem card.
This section discusses the operation of PC fax/modem cards when used
with CardTalk in both the MS-DOS and Windows environments.
