3. If you inserted a RAM or hard disk card, did you format it?
Like a diskette, a new PC RAM or hard disk card may need
to be formatted (initialized) before you can use it. See the
documentation that came with the card for instructions.
4. Is your PC card compatible with the ActionNote? The PC
card slots on your computer support PCMCIA version 2.1
or earlier and accept up to two Type I or II cards, or one
Type III card. If you aren't sure your card is compatible, call
the EPSON Connection or your Authorized EPSON
Servicer to ask about tested cards.
5. Did you run the MS-DOS MEMMAKER utility or load a
memory manager (such as MS-DOS EMM386.EXE)? If so,
you must ensure that these programs do not interfere with
the memory addresses and other settings used by your
PCMCIA drivers by editing your CONFIG.SYS file.
Your system comes with EMM386.EXE loaded from the
CONFIG.SYS file. This memory manager already excludes
the PCMCIA driver memory range D000h to DFFFh. If you
ran a non-MS-DOS memory manager program, see your
memory manager documentation for instructions on
excluding the address range D000h-DFFFh. If you ran the
MS-DOS MEMMAKER program, it may have modified the
command line for EMM386.EXE in the CONFIG.SYS file so
that it no longer excludes the memory range D000h to
DFFFh.
To edit the EMM386.EXE command line, use the Windows
Sysedit utility in the Applications group. Then change the
EMM386.EXE command line to read as follows:
DEVICE=C:\DOS\EMM386.EXE RAM X=D000-DFFF
You should also use Sysedit to make sure the
SMARTDRV.EXE command line in your AUTOEXEC.BAT
file contains the /
X switch.
