Look for information regarding your laptop brand/model, or similar models, at: http://gerda.univie.ac.at/freebsd-laptops/ What version of FreeBSD are you running? I'm not familiar with the laptop; but FreeBSD 5.* has problems with many of the older pcmcia slots. If you're running FreeBSD 5.*, consider: 1. recompiling the kernel using the OLDCARD kernel configuration file. 2. If ACPI is enabled, try booting with it disabled. (If it's disabled, try booting with it enabled.) 3. You might also consider changing to FreeBSD 4.10, the production version of FreeBSD. Best of luck, Andrew Gould
