Most PC Cards conform to the PCMCIA (Personal Computer
Memory Card International Association) standard.
TECHNICAL NOTE: For PCMCIA-compatible PC Cards, check
the package to make sure they conform to the PCMCIA 2.1
standard (or later). Other cards may work with your computer,
but they are likely to be much more difficult to set up and use.
Inserting a PC Card

comes with its own version of Card and Socket Services, you
should use the files included in the operating system.
