What version of WinCe does it run? Interesting and/or fun, surely. Games, possibly, but not sure if the extensive legacy WinCe 3.0/4.0 software library for the StrongARM cpu are compatible with your model... No idea on that last question, depends if it can get reflashed or not, if there's a port for …

I found 2 personal pages mentioning the card (years ago), one stating the person had bought the 5571 and not the W version on purpose, and another with a table of pcmcia cards tested. Both have contact emails, did you try them already? http://www.pluto.dti.ne.jp/~fkz/negoto/rex5571.html http://www. …

Is that an internal speaker on that card? It's huge! Yes, it is, the volume wheel controls both the speaker and audio output level, also the onboard speaker is disabled when headphones or speakers are plugged in, thankfully! That's an interesting sound card it'll be fun to play around with Tested …

I'm sure this isn't a particularly great card but I had a hard time passing up a good condition PCI video card for 5 dollars. It's a STB Systems "Nitro PCI 1.5" (at least, that's what the video BIOS chip label says) based around a Cirrus Logic CL-GD5434 chip and with I assume 2MB of video memory …

Yes I'm sure, Panasonic is the only brand that made use of that function of the pcmcia port. The fm card readme mentions the feature and its settings .ini file has a parameter for it.

I can answer that one, it doesn't sound that bad really, it just depends on the laptop, "newer" ones use the same speakers for the integrated audio card out and the basic system speaker sounds, so it's quite good on those. On older models usually without integrated audio, the system speaker is just …
