I am using an upgraded HP 320lx to Win CE 2.0. I would like to use a the PCMCIA slot with a CF card connected to an adapter while having another CF card at the CF slot. The HPC reads my CF slot as Storage Card while my PCMCIA is not recognized at all. It only is recognized when I am off the ac adaptor and it asks for the driver. What am I doing wrongly? Please help. Thanks.

thanks for the swift reply,
both of my cf cards are recognized on the cf slot. both of them are also not recognized on the pcmcia slot. I used my pcmcia cf adapter with my hp 200lx and both of my cf cards were recognized. What type of pcmcia adapter should I therefore use since I am using the wrong one?

Use a flashlight and look carefully into the pcmcia slot. What you describe sounds like a bent pin in the pcmcia slot. I say this because your CF cards and adapter work fine in another machine, so that only leaves the pcmcia slot.

However, there might be a pcmcia.dll update for your 320lx, hunt around, I'm not sure.

Finally I got it to work. Thanks for all your help guys. My compact flash adapter was the culprit. Mine was just a CF adapter for type I only. When I used my friends CF adaptor type II out came "Storage Card2". Thanks for all your help.
