Default Cardbuss Cause of No Detection?

SNIP

There is probably a host bus chip between the internal
bus and the CardBus.

| PCI

+------- cardbus-bridge ------ (Cardbus slot) -- Modem-card

I recommend booting an alternate OS, one equipped
with utilities to suss out hardware connectivity,
and whether the cardbus-bridge is turned ON.

Or, you can try Everest. This is where it was the last time.

"EVEREST Free Edition 2.20"

And look in the PCI section.

The database on that copy is pretty old, so newer computers,
almost all the entries will be [nodb], meaning the VENEV
or VID:PID are not in the database. Still, it gives you
some idea the machine is alive.

Hi Paul,

I downloaded Eversthome220.zip and by golly, that is a VERY NICE
utility,

I have used "System Analyser" V5.2 (11-21-01) for getting system
information, but Everest is much more advanced by comparison.

I could post a part of the "Report" (saved in text format) relating to
PCI, if that would help?

Thanks in advance, John
