XP will not recognize PCMCIA card

Asked by mpcm in PCMCIA Laptop Interface, Broadband Internet, Windows XP Operating System

Tags: Sprint, Sprint Connection, Dell, Latitude D600, PCMCIA card

I have an issue with a Sprint Merlin S620 Broadband card being recognized when it's inserted into the PCMCIA slot of a Dell Latitude D600 with XP Pro installed. Things I have done to try an resolve this issue are:
Install a new PCMCIA slot
Reinstall the latest Sprint Connection Software
Uninstall and reinstall the PCMCIA controller drivers
I have three different PCMCIA cards I 've tested with the slot, the Merlin S620, a Netgear wireless ethernet adapter, and a Sierra Aircard 775. Only the Sierra Wireless aircard is being recognized by XP as it prompts and tries to install the drivers. The other two will not do anything.

If you're thinking bad cards, that's not it because they both work perfectly on another laptop.

I have checked the BIOS for settings concerning COM ports and found nothing.

I have updated the PCMCIA controller drivers

I have reinstalled the chipset drivers

There are no issues within device manager that would indicate a problem. Other than the fact that it doesn't show up under Modems, USB, or Ports like it should.
The fact that this card works in another laptop and another kind of Aircard will try to install really has me in fits. Thanks for any help.
