SYMPTOMS

On certain laptop computers running Windows 95 OEM Service Release 2 (OSR2), when a PC Card is inserted into a slot in the docking station while another slot in the docking station is occupied by a PC Card, the newly inserted PC Card may not be recognized.

CAUSE

This symptom has been observed with certain docking stations that use the TI 1130 PCI-to-CardBus bridge, and occurs only when the PC Card is inserted into a CardBus slot connected through this bridge (that is, in the docking station).

STATUS

This problem no longer occurs in Windows 98. To resolve this problem, install the current version of Windows. For information about the current version of Windows, visit

MORE INFORMATION

This symptom may occur regardless of whether the PCI-to-CardBus bridge in the docking station is configured as a "positive decode" or a "subtractive decode" bridge.

If you are experiencing this symptom, contact your computer manufacturer for a possible remedy.
