Dayna Communicard with PB 1400C

[tendim]

I recenty acquired a PowerBook 1400C with a Dayna Communicard. I've managed to source the drivers from the Macintosh Driver Museum, and the software installs fine. But when I insert the card, I get a message, "the correct software you need to use your pc card is not installed".

Some notes:

• Running System 7.6
  
• Driver version 1.2.1
  
• The PC Card shows up on the desktop
  
• When I run the diagnostic software that comes with the driver, it recognizes that the card is in the computer (in either slot), and that it is a Dayna card

Has anybody managed to get this card to work?

Thanks,

That was my primary Ethernet card for both my 5300c and 1400c for many years. I'll have to see if I can find the driver disk...

Well, after lots of searching online I found that the Dayna CommuniCard driver v2.2 is included on the Mac OS 8.1 install CD, which I was lucky enough to have in my collection. The driver now works, and the PB1400C is online!

I'll post up the driver sometime soon for others that run into the same problem.
