Programs that Make Your PC Card Work

PC Cards require Card and Socket Services software. While this
title sounds rather complex, it's nothing to worry about—it's
merely a set of programs that acts as a translator between the PC
Card and the computer, and makes hot swapping (switching cards
while the computer is on) possible.
Windows 95 comes with all the Card and Socket Services pro-
grams already installed. Rather than using the version of these pro-
grams that come with your PC Card, using the Windows 95
versions ensures complete compatibility with all the features of
Windows 95.
To set up the Card and Socket Services programs for your PC
Card, see "Setting Up Your PC Card for Your Computer" on
page 136.

PC Cards and Suspending the Computer

Windows 95's Card and Socket Services software is designed to
support Toshiba's Resume Mode and the Windows 95 Suspend
command. If you use another manufacturer's Card and Socket
Services software instead, the system may not recognize your PC
Card when you turn the computer on after suspending.
Shut down and restart the computer and the system will recognize
the card.
