Using the CD: Magma Expansion Driver - Network connectivity goes down
after installing Magma Cardbus driver.


Using the same driver on older laptops, no problem.
But when installed on some newer laptops, problem occurs.
This problem happens after the installation of the Magma Expansion
Driver the first time, network icons disappear (no network connections
at all). This is using the Magma CD Expansion driver.

SOLUTION:

Recommend not to install the Magma Expansion Driver from the Magma CD.
To fix the problem, download and install Mobility Cardbus Expansion
Driver for Windows XP only:

Instructions:

1. You must remove or uninstall the previous installed Magma Expansion
Driver
2. Reboot laptop
3. Install the Mobility Driver 1.1 version



NOTE!!

If you had installed the Magma Expansion Driver from the CD and you're
experiencing network connectivity failure. The only way to fix this
is to run the Windows Repair Disk or Windows Recovery Disk to
reinstall or repair Windows XP. Install all Service Packs, Windows
Updates and Security Updates. Then install the Mobility Driver 1.1
