How would I address the drivers issue (which drivers to use)?
It would be nice to have the CD in use and the floppy PC card rather
than swapping out the CD for the floppy which is the way the PC
was designed. I'm using Win 95B and Win 2K on the C610, Win 95
is the one that I'm looking to use the PC card on, thanks. - Louis
Shouldn't be a problem.
It's a standard YE-Data PCMCIA floppy drive.
And drivers shouldn't be needed... right folks? Floppy and hard
drives are usually controlled by BIOS. I'd just plug it in and see
if it works.

It does work as expected on Win2K, just plug and play. But so far the plug
'n play is a no go for Win 95 hence the question about drivers. It simply
doesn't recognize that the floppy PC card is being placed in the slot, no
beeps, no new hardware Windows popup, nada. Never used a PC card for
anything but the 50CT so I have little knowledge of them.
As soon as I plug the PC card floppy into the 50CT running Win95 it
recognizes the card. I can place drivers on the C610, just asking which ones
I can experiment with to get the Dell to recognize the Toshiba PC card
floppy. Any ideas on how to get it to work? - Louis
