N1K Posted September 22, 2004 Posted September 22, 2004 Maybe you can contact Sony tech supportIt may be possible that PCMCIA slot is malfunctioning

CoffeeFiend Posted September 23, 2004 Posted September 23, 2004 These can be tricky to get to work sometimes on some laptops. I'd start by trying different slot configs in the bios (pc card/pcmcia) Lots of times this fixes it.
