Network PC card not working.
I have a Latitude CPx H450 GT. In the PC-slot, I use either a WiFi-card or a ethernet card. This has stopped working, leaving me without any network connection.
Both cards work when I try them in a friends laptop.
The ethernet card has LEDs that light up when the card is in use. Those LEDs come on in my friends computer, but not when the card is used in mine.
Running the diagnostics utilities, no problem is detected with the PCMCIA controller if there is no card in the slot. If there is a card in the slot, I get a message saying that the card is not fully seated. I believe (strongly) that it is... I have checked the pins in the connector, and they are ok; nothing bent nor broken.
The problem occurs on both the upper and the lower slot.
Does anyone know what is broken, and if it can be fixed, and if so, how?
