    I have tried installing the WL100 pcmcia card in my laptop but the card just won't install properly. The cards (I have 2) are both running the latest firmware and I downloaded the latest drivers.

    I tried installing the card on:
    - Toshiba Tecra 8100 with Windows 2000, Windows 98 and Windows ME
    - IBM Thinkpad 600E with Windows 2000

    The results:
    Toshiba Tecra 8100/W2K became very unresponsive and a lot of mouse buffer overflows where reported in the eventvwr (event ID 12) along with a lot of CW10 errors (event ID 5002, adapter not working properly). Sometimes the light on the pcmcia card flashed continuously, other installations resulted in the light burning continuously.

    IBM Thinkpad windows 2000: similar symptons as on the Toshiba Tecra 8100.

    Toshiba Tecra 8100 windows 98/ME : after installing the driver and rebooting the system, I get a prompt telling me that the WL100 card is not properly setup and that I probably need to install the driver again......

    I don't know what is happening here, but I think I tried everything possible, so help is appreciated......
