first off, i have 2 machines that simply won't let me format the hard drives as they seem to think something is running that prevents me from formatting them. any thoughts?
secondly, and more importantly, i'm trying to add pcmcia slots on these machines. i have 2 different cards from 2 different manufacturers. both assure me that i can run 32 bit card bus cards. both promise plug and play installation. but when i plug, they can see the cardbus card, but inform me that "the firmware on this system is not configured to allow the cardbus controller to be run in cardbus mode". i would have thought it would be easy to find the solution to this, but it hasn't been. however, i can take solace in the fact that thousands of other windoze victims have the exact same problem and they don't seem to have an answer either. you guys know how to fix this, right? i'm running xp pro and have run all the updates i've been told to run. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
