II. General Hints
*****************
Removal and Reinsertion of CardMan 4000:
----------------------------------------
Although several operating systems and card enablers are capable of
configuring the PCMCIA cards, if a CardMan 4000 is inserted AFTER the boot up
procedure of the operating system, only the Windows 2000 and Windows XP
Smartcard Resource Manager is able to recognize it.
This means that it is necessary to reboot the computer after the CardMan 4000
has been inserted, if you are running one of the following operating systems:
Windows NT 4.0, Windows 95, Windows 98 and Windows Millennium Edition.
It also means that in case you have removed the CardMan 4000 and you want to
use it again, you must reboot your system one more time.
Standby Mode:
-------------
The standby mode is supported in Windows 98 Second Edition, Windows Millennium
Edition, Windows 2000 and Windows XP.
The standby mode is disabled for Windows 95 and Windows 98.
Card Enabler:
-------------
The CardMan 4000 has been successfully tested with the following card enablers
under Windows NT 4.0:
Award Cardware 6.0.011
Systemsoft Card Wizard 5.00.12
Softex Card Services 2.0
The CardMan 4000 works fine with these card enablers, but it is only possible
to work with one CardMan 4000 in this configuration.
Synchronous Smartcards:
-----------------------
The synchronous smartcards SLE 4418/4428, SLE 4432/4442 and I2C cards are
supported in this release of the CardMan 4000 driver.
CardMan Diagnostic Tool:
------------------------
The driver files install also the CardMan Diagnostic Tool on your system.
This tool is listed in the Control Panel and displays version and status
information.
You can remove the CardMan Diagnostic Tool by deleting the following files:
For Windows 95, Windows 98 and Windows Millennium Edition: cmdiag.cpl,
cmdiag.ini, cmabout.dll, cmabout.ini and ok.bmp in the SYSTEM directory.
For Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000 and Windows XP: cmdiag.cpl, cmdiag.ini,
