Enabling PC Card Hard Disk Operation
Intergraph Computer Systems has found a resource conflict that keeps a PC Card hard disk
(ATA or AT type) from being configured by Windows NT 4.0. To enable operation of a PC
Card hard disk in a PC Card adapter, you must edit the Windows NT Registry.
WARNING
Be careful when making changes in the Registry. Any mistakes or incorrect changes
may cause serious operating system problems, and you may have to reinstall the
operating system. If the system becomes unusable after you have modified the
Registry, restart the system and try to use the Last Known Good configuration option to
undo the damage. See Windows NT documentation for more information on the Last
Known Good configuration option.
To enable PC Card hard disk operation:
1. Start the Registry Editor (
REGEDT
32.
EXE
) to open the Registry.
2. Open the following subkey in the Registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Pcmcia
3. From the Edit menu, select Add Value.
4. In the Value Name box, type InterruptMask.
5. In the Data Type box, select REG_DWORD; then select OK.
