Philip,
I'll check the 32 bit properties. Any hints where I should look?
First try: BIOS settings.
I believe I had it set to "Auto-Selected".
You can try your luck with "16-bit/Cardbus" (sic).
(I think "PCIC-compatible" is strictly 16 bit.)
And check the CPU cache ("write back").
As far as I can see on XP the PCMCIA takes irq 11. I also have these
problems with DVD playback even I use a USB 2.0 and a HD or a DVD drive.
On Win2K both pcmcia-ports take irq 09. Shouldn't make much difference
I'd guess.
But XP is an enormous resource hog on a 64 MB 233 Mhz PC. Do you use
that to play DVDs?
Any tips on the settings?
Not much more, actually.
I was simply surprised that a 16-bit ISA bus is faster than a 32-bit
cardbus (= PCI-extension).
Philip
