Re: DOS PC card drivers under Windows 95
Never mind, I've got it. In Windows 95, you go into the Windows
directory, scroll down to a shortcut called "exit to DOS", click on
advanced and add the necessary drivers to the config.sys box (I cut and
pasted them for the config.sys created when I installed the drivers). When
you click on the shortcut, it reboots you into DOS with the drivers loaded.
It doesn't recognize a compressed drive (I suspect the Win95-compressed
drive is incompatible with IBM's 16-bit pc card drivers), but I can write
and read to the drive now. Just for anyone else's FYI...
