So I'm a newbie and the last post I made was about a wifi card that turned out to be incompatible.. or at least no one had made drivers for HPC yet. So I returned that and got myself a Netgear MA701. This is for my NEC Mobile Pro 790. I installed the CD, which said it will load the software/config utility on the next connection, which it did. The next thing I naturally did was turn on my Mobile Pro, and insert the CF Card. It gave me a prompt asking me for the Driver name, which I figured could be whatever I want, so I just called it MA701, and then it said, "Driver not found" and gave it sme generic driver and of course it doesn't work. Now I just have no clue how to get it working. Is there a specific driver I need to name it, or is this an error of the installation?

Any advice is appreciated! Thanks. BTW, for those who reply to this -- what do you use your HPC for mainly?

The dirver name is either MA701.dll or MA701_Net.dll and you must have installed it in \windows, no where else.

So I tried choosing MA701_Net.dll and it looked like it accepted it, but going to System nothing showed up as an expansion card. Also, running the config utility would give the error "Please insert card first."

So then I tried choosing MA701.dll and then it gave a Debug window saying "driver is called..." "drivers/unknown/pcmcia/....etc" and that didn't work either.

Both were in the \windows directory... any suggestions?
