Thanks for you reply.

It is a PCMCIA card supplied by Bluewin, which is the ADSL provider in Switzerland, where I am going to be living for the next 3 years.

It's number is NWH1022, and the wireless protocol is 802.11b+.

I am running Windows XP SP 1.

Look forward to your comments.

ok, now I am confused

the a7n266 spec makes no mention of a pcmcia extender.... did this come with the motherboard or was it sourced from else where? What is the make and model of the extender card?

I purchased the extender card seperately, it is a RIcoh but I am away from my PC at the moment and cannot get to the exact serial number.

Morning NooNoo.

The exact part number of the extender card is:

Ricoh R/RL/RT/RC/5C475(II), R5C520

The motherboard is an A7N266-VM Version 1.05, on which I have never updated the BIOS.

Any ideas?

this it?

• RICOH R5C475II chipset
• Hot Swapping and Plug-n-Play compatible
• Support 16-bit (PCMCIA 2.1/JEIDA 4.2) and most 32-bit (CardBus) PC Cards

Most..... that's ominous - do any other pcmcia cards work with it?

try emailing the message about firmware to support
