DOS Utilities Running Environment

The DOS utilities run well under MS-DOS 6.22.
For the PCM350 and LM350 PCMCIA cards, the DOS utilities do not use card and socket services for
configuring the cards; they program the PCMICIA socket directly. Therefore, an 82365-compatible
socket controller is required for proper operation. Many, but not all, socket controllers have this
capability.
Note If a utility program does not run, use the PCMCIA.COM utility to turn the adapter's slot on. After
you are finished running the utility programs, use PCMCIA.COM to turn the adapter's slot off.
