Re: [Poqetpc] Any Poqet PCs for Sale?

Terry,

I have some newer CompacFlash cards in a PCMCIA holder card. I also have some 512MB Type III hard drive cards and some newer microdrives in PCMCIA adapters. None seem to work.

The PoqetPad has several utilitites for the cards. One is PQFormat, which can not find any of my cards. Format is a DOS utility that does not see the PCMCIA cards.
At any rate, the system knows the card it there, but it will not read it and it will not format it. I tired putting a small CF card in that had been formatted to Dos5. I then added the PQ(utilities) from the web that seem to match size and date with the utilities on my PQPd and copied the autoexec and config files as well. NADA.

   I figure there is something I am missing, but am at a loss.

Bryant

I don't know exactly how it's done on the PoqetPad, but the process on
another computer should be similar. I need to know what kind of card you're
using. Is it a "new" card? Is it an ATA Flash card or an SRAM card? You
mentioned a Type III device as well, which is most likely a mechanical hard
drive. If it's an SRAM, it'll have a backup battery installed, which must
be good or the card might not be seen.
The PoqetPad should have a utility for initializing the cards. Is there a
menu of some sort?
