Storage PC Card does not work
Possible Cause
SRAM and flash memory PC Cards require the memory card
driver to be loaded.
Solution
Memory cards can only be accessed using DOS real mode drivers.
Possible Cause
You are trying to access the storage PC Card using the wrong
drive letter.
Solution
If you are using Windows 95, change the drive letter assignment in
Device Manager.
If you are using Windows NT, change the drive letter assignment
through the Control Panel.
Possible Cause
The PC Card is not formatted.
Solution
For memory cards, run MCFORMAT in MS-DOS Mode to format
the PC Card. For ATA cards, run ATAINIT, then run
MCFORMAT in MS-DOS Mode to format the PC Card.
Possible Cause
The card is not supported.
Solution
Contact your Compaq authorized dealer, reseller, or service
provider for a list of PC Cards tested successfully with Compaq
computers.
