Support Note
		Supported Hardware Platforms For LAPcan Currently, the LAPcan PCMCIA (i.e. PC Card) card is supported on: Computers with a PCMCIA or CardBus slot; running Windows 95a. Computers with a PCMCIA or CardBus slot; running Windows 95b. Computers with a PCMCIA or CardBus slot; running Windows 98. Computers with a PCMCIA slot; running Windows NT 4.0 - provided the PCMCIA slot is supported by Windows NT. Computers with a PCMCIA or CardBus slot; running Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows Server 2003. We can not supporting the following platforms: Computers running Windows 3.1, 3.11 or older. DOS (any version). Computers running Windows NT 4.0 or older, unless the PCMCIA slot is supported by Windows NT.
		Background Information: Windows NT 4.0 and earlier provides a limited support for PCMCIA cards. Many newer portable computers have a CardBus interface which normally is backward-compatible with the PCMCIA standard. On some platforms, however, there CardBus interface is not backwards compatible with the PCMCIA standard. Such computers are not supported by Windows NT 4.0 or older, and as a consequence of this, we can't support these computers either. We expect Microsoft to have a much improved PCMCIA/CardBus support in Windows 2000. Q: How do I tell if my computer's PCMCIA slot is supported by Windows NT? A: Open the Control Panel and double-click on the "Devices" icon. Scroll through the list, and if there's an entry reading Pcmcia Started Boot then there's a good chance that your computer's PCMCIA slot and NT are happy together.
