Message #1 Posted by Louise Man on 18 Dec 1999, 9:01 a.m.

Anyone ou there knows whether and how my HP95LX can use an Intel Flash Series 2 2Mbyte Memory Card????

If the flash card can be used where can I get the required drivers???

Thanks in advance

regards

Louise

I'm not exactly sure, what you mean with a "series 2" card.

If you mean the intel cards, that were used in the Apple Newton or in some laptops, then sorry, no.

I had an email communication with a guy from the HP development team years ago (I believe, it was Everett Kaser) and he explained, that they did get the intel drivers, but they were buggy and it would have taken too long to even include them in the HP100LX. I'm pretty sure, that these cards will never work in the HP95LX. Try a sandisk compatible card instead. Note: There's also a size limit for memory cards in the 95LX (I don't know the size now but could start a research)

If somebody knows a solution for the problem, it would be nice to post it here.
