In my case, no - that's not it.... the hardware was/is working fine - it was Vista that was broken!! I dual boot my pc and was fully able to use it from SUSE Linux. Also - its a laptop so "pulling" any non-PCMIA card is not generally possible! In any case, being unable to find/fix the specific problem, I simply reloaded the Vista partition with a clone I had thankfully made - by dual booting and then using the LINUX tool ntfsclone! Thanks to the LINUX world for again saving my Windows stuff - lol
