- I red in a book that this card has a diskette program to set and access the
- clock on the card as well as programs to turn memory into a Ram disk and
- obtain a printer spooling capability.
- But I dont have this diskette or this program so I can't use its battery to have
- the time and date in memory.
- I tried to use an intern modem card in my computer but it's incompatible with
- this multifunctions card I can't choose the good seriell port so I need to
- change its jumper or SW1 but as I dont have its manuell I dont know how .
- I can't use printer neither.
- Do you know if it's possible to use a mouse with this card or it need a sparate
- card ? How about joysticks ?
- I hope you can help me. But as I am not an expert explain simple .
-
- Thanks
