traditionally included on Windows distributions are not included with Windows XP. The
following information explains a work around to get Windows XP to recognize and use PC
Card SRAM. Be certain Windows XP is up to date with the latest Service Packs and the host
hardware correctly supports PC Cards.
Please note that Pretec provides this work around as a customer service and does not
guarantee that will work with every system configuration.
