Unable to install PC/MCIA cards or Wireless PC card

Reinstall, was this a clean install?
If so are there any drivers on yr Toshiba disks, that you forgot to
install?
Are any errors shown in Hardware Devices?

 

[Guest]

yes, it was a clean install.
I believe, All the drivers needed are installed.
Error= Code 28= Unable to find a driver for this
device.

In Control Panel/System/Hardware/Device Manager presumably you have some
exclamation marks against none functioning devices.
You need to install the drivers for these devices, as per err code.
They should either be on Toshiba supplied disk or on the Toshiba web site

 

[Guest]

Nope, No exclamation mark... is showing up under any
devices :-( Hummm!

Sure - the driver is not yet installed, so it won't be in dev. manager.
If you say that win2k refuses to take latest driver from Toshiba,
the problem is in the pcmcia controller.
Try to find updated driver for the controller...
