Ake Pcmcia To Usb 2.0 Driver
Hi, I am trying to upgrade my laptop to use USB2 via one of the two Cardbus ports to access an external USB hard drive.I read the specs to determine whether the laptop would support a Type II, PCMCIA USB2 card. The specs stated it could take 2 x Type II Cardbus cards, or 1 x 32 bit Type III, Cardbus. I assumed the 2xType II Cardbus cards were 32 bit and ordered a Type II, 32 bit USB2 card accordingly.However inserting the NEC USB2 Cardbus causes the mouse to freeze and there are no signs of detection from hot loading the card once in Windows desktop.I have also successfully updated all recommended files and Bios for Windows XP, SP3.Can you advise whether the laptop takes 32 bit, Type II Cardbus cards? If so, is there a routine I can follow to get the 4 port USB2 Cardbus operational? Please note on examining the error log in Admin Tools I note an error is occuring on insertion of the USB2, 4-port PCMCIA Cardbus with the 'System', 'Event 10'.I'd appreciate your advice on this matter since the Cardbus is readily inserted into the PCMCIA card slot suggesting it is 32-bit, but it may not be.Cheers, Tim. There are PCMCIA Type II slots and cards, and the newer PCMCIA Cardbus Type II slots and cards.All PCMCIA slots and cards that are Cardbus are 32 bit. Hi again, thanks for your comments in relation to my Toshiba Pro 4600 laptop.
I remain somewhat confused. I assume only the Cardbus has a copper grounding strip with 8 goose bumps. If so, I have a NetOne 108mb/s Wireless PCMCIA, Type II card with copper grounding strip and 8 goose bumps functioning in the lower PCMCIA slot.

I understand this slot can also accommodate a 16 bit PC-Card. Given the wireless card fits the above description of a 'Cardbus' and is working fine then am I right in assuming the second slot must also take a 32-bit Cardbus?Am I missing something here? If not, and it is a 32 bit Cardbus, then how do I overcome it freezing the computer up during installation?Oh, just read your comments if laptop does support Cardbus. Your recommendation that I load software prior to adding Cardbus makes sense. However the 4port USB2 Cardbus received which was stated to be of NEC type (i.e.
Reliable) did not come with a hard copy or electronic manual for looking. The packaging whilst colourful doesn't even give the model number of the PCMCIA card purchased! The small CD-Rom has drivers for USB2 and what appears to be several brands of ther PCMCIA cards. Does anyone know routinely the drivers to load for a NEC USB2 card?

This would assist my situation.Cheers and thanks, Tim. Descargar bordados gratis janome. Your model is old enough that it may or may not support Cardbus / 32 bit cards. Thanks for the tips. I guess I need to determine for sure whether my laptop is Cardbus compatible.
'TOSHIBASatellite® Pro 4600 SeriesExpandability: 2 PC Card slots support two Type II or one Type III PC Cards,32-bit CardBus ready'.' .32-bit CardBus ready'OK, that's encouraging, but I'm not sure what ready refers to.'
And also in another laptop Manual: '2 x PC Card type II or 1 x PC Card type III, CardBus support, memory expansion, additional expansion possibilities via docking options';And finally also in this Manual: 'EXPANSION:Two PC Card slots supporting either:- 2 x Type II (5mm) PC Cards or 1 x Type III (10.5mm)- 32-bit CardBus Compatible'.' What do you mean by 'another laptop Manual'If it isn't for your model series, that info doesn't necessarily apply.There are Type I, II, and III cards that are NOT Cardbus / 32 bit, and Type II and III ones that are.
The Toshiba links for Support, the Specs, and the Manual time out, apparentlyGo here:On the leftSupport My ProductClick on Click here to find your laptopHave it auto detect when you access the site with the 4600, or enter your serial number, orFamily - Satellite ProSeries - the first one - Satellite Pro 4600Model - any, or choose the one you have.No (Main) Chipset Drivers are listed for XP, but they are listed for 2000, so the main chipset drivers are built into XP.I had do determine the Intel Main Chipset by searching on the web because that's not mentioned in the specs or the manualE.g. 'Tubesandwires' thanks very much for the excellent suport you have provided.
Unfortunately as luck would have it I was in the Intel site and about to download the chipset drivers when they decided to take the site down for maintenance. So I will attempt to upgrade the laptop now over the weekend when I can get access and more time to make a go of it. I'll let you know how I go.
You were indeed correct in stating that there is a Texas PCI 1410 Cardbus Controller in the Device Settings. I'll post the outcomes to updating the chipset drivers as mentioned.Cheers, TimJefro - had considered the possibility of a conflict and attempted to alter the mouse IRQ however the option to turn off the automatic sensing is greyed out. Then tried to alter the IRQ resource setting for the Texas PCI 1410 Cardbus Controller. Again this was greyed out preventing manual alteration. I did note however the mouse had an IRQ of 11 and the Texas PCI Cardbus 1410 an IRQ of 12. Thus not conflictual and system was not indicating a 'conflict condition' for either also.
I may persist with your suggestion if I have no luck with updating chipset.
