Hi *
two days ago my Wallstreet II/PDQ (233MHz, 256MB/30GB) suddenly did
not recognise my USB-PCCard any more. When I now insert the Card,
then the Finder thinks for a moment and then nothing happens.
Therefore I even fail to eject it (except using a paper clip when
switched off).
In addition my Firewire card seems to be recognised, but does not function.
On top of this bt cards are recognised by my wife's PC notebook
(although I cannot test their functionality since I do not have any
driver software for PC).
Any idea? A repair handbook I found somewhere suggest to replace
PC cardholder or I/O logic board, but this is suggested for any
failure when nothing else solves the problem. Is it really this
severe?
While I had a Wallstreet for about a year, I did replace the PC card cage
(or cardholder) 3 times. The spring eject mechanism was a poor design and
was replaced on the following model, the Lombard...

brain dump n.: [common] The act of telling someone everything one knows
about a particular topic or project. Typically used when someone is going to
let a new party maintain a piece of code. Conceptually analogous to an
operating system core dump in that it saves a lot of useful state before an
exit. You'll have to give me a brain dump on FOOBAR before you start your
new job at HackerCorp. See core dump (sense 4). At Sun, this is also known
as `TOI' (transfer of information).
