Look at the business end of the card. Do you see a row of bumps the card?
If you do, then you are holding a CardBus. If you do not see the row of
bumps then you have a pccard.

If you are using an Adaptec controller card, like a 2940, there is a
low-level format in the card-bios. You can get into the card-bios utilities
by watching the system as it is coming up and hitting control-a.

Your mileage may vary.
