Jarrod,

That it was hanging at that point had nothing to do with the card, but rather 
the controller.  A pc card is to the slot what a hard drive is to the IDE 
controller.  It was hanging because it wasn't able to talk to the controller 
properly.

Don't know about the memory card.  Sorry.  The only thing I use pcmcia for on 
this laptop is a 3Com 3c589C network card, which works just fine with the 
bios set to cardbus.
