    sram card

    Check out this link just went through this at our shop these are 16 bit cards and most newer computers are 32 bit good luck or call Memex and talk to Gram Young (1-905-635-3043) and the can get you a card reader that hooks up to a usb port and will work with any computer for $195. that what we ended up doing if you have a older computer that still has the 16 bit card slot you may or may not get it to work the link below has some helpful info.

    SRAM and Windows XP Work Around for PC Card SRAM
    SRAM Cards do not come with drivers, it has always been the OS vendor's responsibility to
    include support for these devices. Unlike previous versions of Windows, SRAM drivers
    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.
    1. Insert the SRAM card into the PC Card slot
    2. When the 'Hardware Wizard' appears, select 'Install from a list or specific location
    (advanced)'
    3. Click 'Next'
    4. Select 'Don't search I will choose the driver to install'
    5. Click 'Next'
    6. Scroll through the list of choice and select 'PCMCIA and Flash memory devices'
    7. Click 'Next'
    8. Double click 'generic' under the Manufacturer listing
    9. Select 'Generic PCMCIA Memory Card' from the Model listing
    10. Click 'Next'
    11. Click the 'Yes' button when the warning dialog appears, to dismiss it
    12. Click 'Finish' when the 'Completing the found new hardware wizard' dialog appears.
    13. Restart Windows

    Agree, however sometimes you need to actually call it the sentinal card. Found that to work 99% of the time.

    This worked for me with a Pretec 2MB SRAM on WXP. Thanks for posting.

    Answer to that is yes, but only with an actual SRAM PCMCIA to USB card reader.
