I'm looking to obtain card services for my thinkpad 701c dos/windows side, and am wondering where/how to go about it. This is probably a naieve question, but i mostly use unix, and am in less than familiar territory particularly when it comes to dos/windows os/hardware configuration. Quite a while back i wiped out and reestablished dos and windows on my thinkpad, as part of a harddisk reconfigure and linux install. I did make floppy backups so i could resurrect the stuff, but it seems like that only included the dos, windows, and os/2 base components. Over time i've picked up or reconstructed some of the useful extras, like faxworks from the ibm ftp site 'mobiles' directory, but i don't seem to be able to find any leads on resurrecting "card services". I gather that the backups don't include the thinkpad "extras", particularly the c:\thinkpad directory where autodrv.sys is supposed to be found? (I have found the 701c_sas.exe, which contains all the thinkpad-distribution .ini files, but of course the entries for the drivers are useless without the drivers...) Anyway, i looked all over http://www.pc.ibm.com for a place to pick up card services, to no avail. The 701_tips.txt identifies a number of files: IBMDSS01.SYS DOS PCMCIA Socket Services Driver 1.35 04-05-95 14888 IBMDOSCS.SYS DOS PCMCIA Card Services Driver 2.21 04-17-95 29535 DICRMU01.SYS DOS PCMCIA Resource Map Utility 1.16 12-01-94 10806 $ICPMDOS.SYS DOS PC Card Power Management Driver 2.22 12-01-94 4500 AUTODRV.SYS DOS PCMCIA PC Card Auto Configurator 1.09 11-11-94 13644 all of which are not found when i search the site. (I suspect they'be been retired, due to diminishing tp701 support.) I want all this because i recently got a 3Com etherlink III fast ethernet/modem card, and i have it working with my linux side of things, but it seems to need card services to be recognized on the dos/windows side. (I would like to use it with newly resurrected faxworks that i obtained from the ibm site, netcom netcomplete, etc.) Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks!
