Re: Xircom Cardbus 100/10 Adapter



I also purchased one of the Xircom Cardbus cards after I got my 760ED. I
tried using the card with OSR2, but with no luck either. OSR2 caused many
problems with my machine anyway, so I went back to Win95A. Xircom supplies
a different driver for these earlier versions of Win95 that allows the card
to work, but will not allow you to use any other type of PC Card at the
same time. The card worked great using this method. I called IBM about the
system patch during January, and they had no information about it then. I
was hoping that this would have been taken care of by now, but obviously
hasn't. 

So for right now, you may have to go back to an earlier version of Win95 so
that you can use the card. So much for progress...
