Hints and tips
Note:
If you want to enter your computer into suspend mode,
first stop the PC Card in the “PC Card (PCMCIA)
Properties” window as follows:
1.
Click
Start
, move the cursor to
Settings
, and click
Control Panel
.
2.
Double-click
PC Card (PCMCIA)
.
3.
From the list, select the card you are stopping.
4.
Click the
Stop
button.
If you remove a communication PC Card from the PC Card slot
and then reinsert it later, it might not work correctly.
You need to
restart your computer.
If you install a PC Card after removing an IDE device of the
UltraslimBay (detaching the ThinkPad 570 UltraBase), and then
later reinsert the device, the card might lose its resource name
for working.
A secondary master IDE device always uses IRQ
15, but after the IDE device is replaced with a diskette drive, IRQ
15 is free, and Windows 95 or Windows 98 assigns it to a new
PC Card.
But IRQ 15 must be taken over with IDE2 when an
IDE device is reinserted.
A CardWorks consideration

Device Manager, correct the CONFIG.SYS file as follows before you
run CardWorks:
1.
Click
Start
.
2.
Move the cursor over
Programs
; then click
MS-DOS Prompt
.
3.
At the command prompt, type
cd..
and press
Enter
.
4.
Type
edit config.sys
and press
Enter
.
5.
On each line where it occurs in the file, remove the following
phrase:
REM - by PC Card (PCMCIA) wizard -
Do not
remove the rest of the line.
6.
Save the updated CONFIG.SYS file.
7.
Restart the system.
