TITLE :PCMCIA Cards Not Currently Supported Under Windows NT
PRODUCT :Windows NT
PROD/VER:3.10
OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
KEYWORDS:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
- Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1
----------------------------------------------------------------------
PCMCIA add-on cards are used mainly in notebook and laptop computers.
They use special interfaces the size of a credit card for devices such
as network cards or modems. These cards are based on a specification
originally designed for memory cards.
These cards are not directly supported in Windows NT. In order for
PCMCIA cards to work under MS-DOS, a device driver is required. In
order for the cards to work under Windows NT, they would require a
device driver written specifically for Windows NT.
These cards may be supported in future updates or releases of Windows
NT. Currently, unless the manufacturer of the PCMCIA device writes a
Windows NT driver, they do not operate with Windows NT.
