SYMPTOMS

On a computer with only one PCMCIA socket, Windows 95 cannot set up a new PCMCIA card if the original PCMCIA card is being used to access the Windows 95 source files.

CAUSE

If you remove the PCMCIA card that is providing access to the Windows 95 source files to set up a new card, Windows 95 cannot access the source files. When you are prompted to provide the source files, you cannot remove the new card and insert the original card because Windows 95 does not detect the removal and insertion of PCMCIA cards during the configuration of the new card.

RESOLUTION

Use the Add New Hardware Wizard to manually install the new PCMCIA card. This process preinstalls the necessary driver files, so that you can set up the new card without accessing the Windows 95 source files.
