Adapter Installation Problems
If your computer cannot find the EZ Connect Wireless Cardbus Adapter
or the network driver does not install correctly, check the following:
• Make sure the adapter is securely seated in the PCMCIA slot. When
you insert the wireless adapter into the notebook’s slot, a beep should
be heard if the adapter is properly inserted. Check for any hardware
problems, such as physical damage to the card’s connector.
• Try the card in another PCMCIA slot. If this also fails, test your
computer with another SMC2635W Wireless Cardbus Adapter that is
known to operate correctly.
• Make sure your computer is using the latest BIOS.
• If there are other network adapters in the computer, they may be
causing conflicts. Remove all other adapters from the computer and
test the wireless adapter separately.
• If it still does not work, take out the wireless adapter. Delete CW10.sys
from c:\windows\system. Then go to “Control Panel” and delete the
adapter from your network configuration menu. Restart your PC and
reinstall the card.
