Enabling PCMCIA Support on the AT&T Globalyst 130

ID: Q138626

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows 95

SUMMARY

The AT&T Globalyst 130 requires a different PCMCIA setup than other AT&T Globalyst series laptops.

MORE INFORMATION

The Hardware.txt file from the Windows 95 CD-ROM instructs you to enable PCMCIA support through the BIOS setup program for the AT&T Globalyst laptops. However, The AT&T Globalyst 130 does not have any options in the BIOS for enabling/disabling the PCMCIA socket services on the laptop. Instead, the socket must be enabled by loading the device driver, Ss365sl.exe, in the Config.sys.

The file, Ss365sl.exe, is a socket enabler, and must be loaded for protect mode socket services to setup in Windows 95. Without this file, the PCMCIA socket services are disabled.

The AT&T Globalyst 200S, 250, 250P, and 3141 contain BIOS settings to enable/disable PCMCIA socket services on the laptop.
