hi guys, subject tech2 pcmcia card, if you have 10 mb card you can't read with newer laptop because no 12v supply, 10 mb card =12v /32 mb card=5v or 12v, if you have 32 mb tech2 card you can read and write with your laptop, just install elan pcmcia card software, i see it on DK, good luck.

Use a USB to PCMCIA Adapter (Very expensive) or use a PCI to PCMCIA adapter : Newegg.com - SYBA PCI 1-Channel CardBus Host Controller Card Model SY-PCI-PCM (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16815124021&cm_re=usb_to_pcmcia_adapter-_-15-124-021-_-Product)
