Using PC Cards
Using the PC Card Director Program
To install the PCMCIA device driver:
Chapter 7.
Note:
When installing an operating system,
install the PCMCIA device driver with
the PCMCIA Features Diskette to
use PC Card Director.
Your computer comes with an advanced IBM program for PCMCIA
called
PC Card Director that makes using PC Cards with your
computer easier by:
Turning on and setting up a PC Card when you insert it in a
PCMCIA slot (Auto Configurator).
Showing what type of PC Card is in your computer.
Notifying you with a message, sound, and icons whenever a
card is inserted or removed.
Allowing you to register an application program for a particular
PC Card and starting the program automatically when the card
is inserted.
Note:
The PCMCIA.CRD file does not
always list the latest PC Cards. If
your PC Card is not listed, try using
it with PC Card Director anyway.
Some PC Cards come with their own device driver that will set them
up just like PC Card Director does. However, if these cards are
supported by PC Card Director, you will not need their device
drivers. The PC Cards that PC Card Director supports are listed in
the PCMCIA.CRD file on the Utility Diskette.
If your PC Card is not supported by PC Card Director, you must
install the driver that came with your card. The card driver must be
compatible with the PCMCIA Card Services Standard Release 2.1.
Follow the instructions in your PC Card manual to install the driver.
