Whenever I try to use a PCMCIA Wireless Card (it doesn't matter which type,
I have tried several) I get an error. It says Windows could not find enough
free resources (Code 12). I have read there maybe a hotfix for this but
Microsoft Support wants to charge me $35 to make this request. I have
disabled everything in the device manager except what I needed to run the PC
(Ex: Hard drive, Monitor, Video Card, etc...) and I even turned off
everything in the BIOS that I didn't need. Can anyone email me where to
find this fix? Or do you know any other way I can manually fix this?

OS: Windows XP Pro SP2

Thank you,

Actually - for most of those hotfixes where you are required to call
Microsoft to get them - if it solves your problem - there is no charge.

Thank you I called Microsoft and they sent me the hotfix.

Now I'm in another dilemma. The hotfix did not solve my problem. Although
everything that is outiled in Q321060 is my
exact problem. Hmmm I'm stumped I have tried everything but still unable to
use a Wireless Card.
Anyone have any ideas?

I have a Toshiba P25 S609 if that helps.
