I've got a very old AST 910N (486 DX4/75) laptop running Windows 95, that has two PCMCIA card slots in it: 2x Type II or 1x Type III.

I recently got hold of a 3Com 10/100 (3CXFE575CT X-Jack) network adapter so that I can hook this into my home network and pull files off other machines instead of using LapLink.

The problem is that I appear to have all the right drivers installed (I'm not sure exactly what system devices I need installed) but the Control Panel only recognises one card slot rather than two.

As I've never used laptop cards before, I don't know what I'm doing wrong as the card is just not being recognised at all.

The other problem is that this laptop has no CD-ROM drive, otherwise I'd be tempted to stick a later version of Windows on it.

Anyone give me some pointers as to what System Devices I must ensure are installed and also how to go about checking that the card/slots are being recognised properly?

Thanks!!
