TECHNICAL NOTE (96006)

The following instruction gives general guidelines on how to remove the previous (rev 1.0) version of Toshiba Card Manager, and the Toshiba PCMCIA.SYS Enabler (if installed), both of which should be done prior to installing Toshiba Card Manager version 3.0.

How to remark out lines in different files:

In DOS files (CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT), just add the word REM at the beginning of the line you wish to remark out.

In Windows files (WIN.INI and SYSTEM.INI), just add a semicolon to the beginning of the line you wish to remark out.

Removing Toshiba Card Manager Version 1.0:

CONFIG.SYS File:

1. Locate the Toshiba Card Manager drivers within CONFIG.SYS, and delete or remark out the "device="

or "devicehigh=" lines which include them. The drivers are:

PCMSS.EXE

PCMCS.EXE

PCMSCD.EXE

PCMATA.SYS

PCMFFCS.EXE

MSFLASH.SYS

DBLFLASH.EXE

Example:

REM DEVICEhigh=C:\PCMPLUS\PCMSS.EXE

REM DEVICEhigh=C:\PCMPLUS\PCMCS.EXE /WAIT=20 /ADDR=C8 /IRQ=10 REM DEVICEhigh=C:\PCMPLUS\PCMSCD.EXE /COM=2 /RS=4

2. Locate any added EMM386 excludes for Toshiba Card Manager and remove these from the "device=emm386.exe" line. These excludes are of the form "X=nnnn-nnnn". If you are using a different memory manager such as QEMM or 386MAX, please refer to your documentation for the exact syntax of the Exclude parameters for these utilities.
