Thanks for the suggestion. I tried upgrading my BIOS but it didn't fix 
it. It seems strange to me that the pc card is recognized but just won't 
start up. Any hardware gurus out there have any thoughts on this. I've 
cracked open my laptop before and repaired it but I have an ominous 
feeling about this one ...
