has been installed and is available. To check this,

figure shown alongside to see if the PCMCIA

Controller is installed without error.

external power) are made as described in Hardware Installation. Slowly insert the PC Card of

interface cable into the PCMCIA socket of computer and press firmly until the connector is seated

(Please note that the PC Card is keyed to guide for proper insertion).

named ‘PCMCIA PnPIDE’, and start

up the ‘Found New Hardware Wizard’.

software automatically’, insert the
