hanging when install PCMCIA DVD-ROM, Hard disk, and CD-RW
(Model-F card) on Toshiba notebook |
|
A: |
|
|
|
Applied models: |
|
|
Applied PCMCIA devices -- PCMCIA
DVD-ROM (Model-F card), PCMCIA Hard Disk (Model-D card), and
PCMCIA CD-RW (Model-F card). |
|
|
Applied notebook -- Toshiba Portege
3110CT, Portege 3409CT, Tecra 8100, and the other models
equipped "Toshiba ToPIC100 CardBus Controller" PCMCIA
controller. The name of PCMCIA controller lists under
"PCMCIA adapters" in "Device Manager". |
|
|
Symptom: |
|
|
When install the driver of the above
PCMCIA devices on a Toshiba notebook (uses Windows XP), the
system will hangs and no reaction. |
|
|
Reason: |
|
|
This problem only happens with the
Toshiba notebook equipped "Toshiba ToPIC100 CardBus
Controller" PCMCIA controller. When the "PC CARD"
setting in BIOS is set to "Auto-Selected", the
ToPIC100 CardBus controller has problem to operates these 16-bit
PCMCIA devices properly. |
|
|
It is probably bug of the WinXP
driver of ToPIC CardBus controller, or bug of the BIOS, because
this problem doesn't happen with other operating systems (Win
98/Me/2000). |
|
|
Solution: |
|
|
Change the "PC CARD"
setting in BIOS, set the value to "CardBus/16-bit".
After reboot, Windows XP will recognize the PCMCIA controller as
"Toshiba ToPIC95 CardBus Controller", and the problem
will be solved. |

Toshiba notebook: |
|
|
1. |
Turn off the
computer. |
|
|
