PCMCIA & Windows 3.1 Problems

by ratcatcher . Updated 23 years, 8 months ago

Hi, I have reformatted my laptop computer with a single partition and installed DOS 6.2 (only) but when I try to install the set of DOS drivers for my PCMCIA CD-ROM I get the following reports:-
1. Card Services Release 2.1 not found
2. Card Services Client not found.

Also, if I try to install Windows 3.1 (from floppy disks) the installation halts at disk two.
However, if I boot up from a Windows 98 boot disk, Windows 3.1 continues install providing I ?Lock Drive C:? (Because of long filenames) but won’t run due to corrupt files.
As a Note, I have previously used the same Windows 3.1 installation disks without the 98-boot disk and without any problems.

Would someone please be kind enough and tell me how to get over these problems.
Thanks
