C-4 Frequently Asked Questions
Can I run two of the same type cards simultaneously?
Yes, Windows 2000 or 98 configures each card. If they are both modems,
configure each for a different Com port and different available interrupts using the
Device Manager in Windows 2000 or Windows 98.
In Windows NT, SystemSoft’s CardWizard configures each card. Use CardWizard to
monitor PC card status in the Windows NT environment.
Why do certain PC cards cause my battery life to drop noticeably?
Certain hard disk cards and wireless radio cards consume more power
than others and can impact battery life. When not using any PC card, close all
applications using the card and pop it part of the way out of the slot to save power.
If my NEC Versa LXi system is docked in the NEC Versa Dock and
I'm using a PC card, the card does not work.
When your system is docked, there are no available IRQs (system
interrupts) to accommodate new devices. Before introducing additional devices, disable
an existing device (such as the serial port), to release an IRQ resource.
To disable a device in Windows 2000/98, go to Start, Settings, Control Panel, System.
In Windows 2000, select the Hardware tab, then the Device Manager. In Windows 98,
select the Device Manager tab. To disable a device in Windows NT, reboot your
system, enter the BIOS setup and access the Peripheral Setup menu.
