Hello, I have a T400 6475-5T5, WinXP, Ricoh CardBus controller device enabled, PC Card fully inserted into the slot, but Pixelview PlayTV (PCMCIA Type II) not being recognised, completely dead, the card's led doesn't light up, no windows "new device" notification, nothing. I've tried various PCMCIA cards, same problem. The card works fine, as I tried it in another laptop. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks. :cry: :help:

I don't recall using PCMCIA cards when I had several T400's, but I've read where the slot can be tight. Make sure the card is seated all the way.
