What If Your Computer Does Not Work?

My PC Card modem does not
work.
Your computer is equipped with a built-in Mwave modem. If you want to
use the PC Card modem instead of the Mwave modem, you need to
release a communications port (COM port) for the PC Card modem. Do
the following:
For OS/2 or Windows
, start the ThinkPad Setup program and release
a COM port for your PC Card modem by:
– Disabling the InfraRed Device in the Infrared section.
– Disabling the Telephony Function in the DSP section.
– Changing the COM port for the Telephony Function from COM2
to COM1.
See page 38 to use the ThinkPad Setup program.
For DOS
, use the PS2 command to disable the telephony function or
infrared port to release a COM port for the PC Card modem.
For more information or the latest tips, refer to:
– PC Card Problems on page 274
– READ.ME file and PCMCIA.CRD file in the THINKPAD
subdirectory of the computer
I cannot use PC Cards other than
the IBM ones in the OS/2 Warp
environment.
If you do not have the PC Card device driver for OS/2 but you have one
for DOS, your PC Card may run in the VDM (virtual DOS machine)
environment. Refer to the “Virtual Card Services for OS/2” in the
OS/2
Warp User's Guide
for setting the VDM and the sample configuration files
on the PCMCIA Device Driver Diskette for OS/2. (If the PCMCIA Device
Driver Diskette for OS/2 did not come with the computer, create it using
the Diskette Factory program.)
My computer does not show as
good performance as I expected.
Performance varies depending on your hardware and software
configurations such as memory size, swapper file size, or smart drive
settings.
Error 2

appears (memory error).
Make sure your memory card is correctly installed.
