Problem with 32bit PCMCIA card support

Hiho again :)

When I tried to add to my laptop rather necessary today port USB (I bought PCMCIA USB card Picture 1.1, not really expensive item) I had a small problem after installation this device. After "automaticall driver installation" (find windows cd, instert into PC, wait and wait, reboot) in Windows 98, I found few errors in Device Manager.

It proved, that I have no 32bit (CardBus) support. But I found solution for this problem :)

It works on Windows 98SE, I haven't tried on other version of Windows.

1. First what do you need it's to download program called "IBM Thinkpad
Utilities" from Lenevo site http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/migr-59734.html as in my case for Windows 98 and for IBM TP 760 XD.
2. Install it on your IBM. If system call you to reboot computer, do it.
3. Start IBM Thinkpad Utilities, find, PC Card slots icon. Change option Cardbus for "Enable". (Picture 1.3).
4. Reboot your computer. Now, I the 32bit PCMCIA cards should work with your IBM.
