The Microsoft sourced PC card support software that may have been
uninstalled or turned off by the Cardsoft stuff

support?
This is one of life's mysteries. It IS needed for Windows NT 4.0. My guess
is that IBM signed a deal to supply it will all MS operating systems.
It is effectively useless on Win95/98 and often gets in the way! There is a
separate DOS version, which IS needed for DOS.

It is on your IBM provided CD.
On 95/98 it is useless.
