[RESOLVED] IBM TP560, 32bit cardbus

February 2nd, 2001, 10:06 PM

I have a clients Thinkpad 560, this little baby has no USB ports on it, We have decided to use a PCMCIA to USB card to solve the problem...So we thought..

the TP560 has typeIII slots not typeII, okies, the card is universal, it does fit..but the system will not recognize any 32/cardbus adaptors at all, Xircom, IBM, anything...

Does anyone have a fix for this..getting sick of IBM's run around
