Topic: Multiface/Lattitude e6420 compatibility
I have a Multiface with a PCMCIA card.
I have recently purchased a new Dell Lattitude e6420 with a quad-core i7 2720qm processor, 4 gig of RAM and an NVS 4200m video card.
It has a pcie slot. I've tried an adaptor for the Cardbus (which requires no driver, and is claimed to work with all cards) and I'm getting hard freezes in 5-15 seconds, but a tantalizing tidbit of sound before that.... I've tried under windows 7 64-bit and XP SP3 32-bit with the same results. Tried both 3.24 and 3.83 (if I have those numbers right) drivers.
Having read here about motherboard conflicts, etc, I thought I'd see if anybody had a multiface/PCIe running with this computer, or at least this chipset, before spending $$ for a PCIe card.
Alternately, if anyone has managed to make the Cardbus work through a PCIe adaptor, I'd like to hear about it..... it seems so close!!!
thanks,
