PC Card Troubleshooting Agent

[Dave]

Hello, I am trying to put a liknsys lan internet card in for high speed and
when I do, I get the following error.


Windows is not able to identify or use the inserted PC Card device because
there is no memory area available to comminicate with the device. You mus
make a mermory area available before this device can be used.

Check your computer's CONFIG.SYS file for a memory manager that is excluding
upper memory regions between A0000 and FFFF


Can anyone help?

Thanks,

[Gary S. Terhune]

Have you checked your CONFIG.SYS file for that kind of entry? Go to Start>Run,
type in MSCONFIG. Click OK. Is there a tab in that utility that says Config.sys?
If so, what's in it?

There are 4 boxes, each are checked, they say

DEVICE=C:\essolo.sys
DEVICEHIGH=C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\CPQIDECD.sys /D:IDECD001
SHELL=C"\COMMAND.COM /P/E:2048
device=c:/windows/system/csmapper.sys

Thanks,
Dave

Unless you work in Pure DOS (Command Prompt Only startup, or Restart in MS-DOS
Mode), you don't need those. Suggest this test:

Start>Run>MSCONFIG<enter>

In System Configuration Utility (MSCONFIG) choose Selective Startup and then
uncheck both autoexec.bat and config.sys. Click OK and restart. See if you can
install the NIC now.
