Try to set default seetings in th bios also.

<div>
I restored default settings in the bios setup.I also uninstalled the PCMCIA drivers and let Windows XP re-detect the hardware. &nbsp;After all that, devices plugged into the PCMCIA slots are still not detected.<br />
The Device Manager does not display &quot;!&quot; beside the PCMCIA device.<br />
What can be done so that devices in the PCMCIA slots willbe detected?

Auto-Detection of Hardware

Microsoft Windows XP is the sixth release of the NT series of operating systems, and was the first to be marketed in a variety of editions: XP Home and XP Professional, designed for business and power users. The advanced features in XP Professional are generally disabled in Home Edition, but are there and can be activated. There were two 64-bit editions, an embedded edition and a tablet edition.
