 That error message from prepcard is normal.. cos you can`t format a network card !

 It`s possible that the PCMCIA port has had a pin damaged when pluggin in the adapter. Take it out, and double check no pins are bent, then push it back in hard (my adapter is a tight fit and it felt like I was gonna end up pushing it out the other side !)

 The only other thing I can think of right now is to get out a magnifying glass and check the adapter.
 Maybe a cold solder joint or a damaged trace ?

Seeing as there are no compontents on the adapter, it`s gotta be something simple (the kind of simple that always makes the air turn blue when you`ve found it  :pissed: )..I wouldn`t have thought the extra couple of inches on the traces would cause a problem..
