Hi Stanley,

Thanks for your prompt response. After trying the following and still
having trouble, I discovered that the source of my irritation was the O2
Micro pcmcia cardbus that was the offender. i have not been able to find
much info on what the problem is with the cardbus, but have in the
meantime exchanged the notebook for one that has a more "pleasant"
cardbus. The EN2220 now works.

Thanks again.

Mike
