put finger to keyboard and composed:

I just installed a PCI adapter to use PCMCIA SRAM cards in my win98
desktop computer. Windows recognized both the adapter and the memory
card and installed new drivers. I rebooted. Control panel-System
reports the devices are there and working properly. The problem is
that the drive has not been assigned a drive letter and doesn't show
up in My Computer or Windows File Manager so I can't transfer files to
or from the card. There is no icon for it that I can see other than
one in the Task Bar that allows you to stop the drive for card
removal. It works. What am I missing?

Four suggestions:

(1) Use TweakUI to check whether the higher drive letters are hidden.

(2) Try executing "fdisk /status" in a DOS window.

(3) Try "vol d:", where "d:" can be D:, E:, F:, etc.

(4) Type the following line at the command prompt (it looks like two
lines but is actually one long line). If required, respond with "Fail"
to "Abort, Retry, Fail?". This should find all the existing drive
letters, whether visible or hidden.

command /c for %%i in (c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y
z) do vol %%i: | find /i "volume"
