SUMMARY
=======

The AT&T Globalyst 130 requires a different PCMCIA setup than other AT&T
Globalyst series laptops.

MORE INFORMATION
================

The Hardware.txt file from the Windows 95 CD-ROM instructs you to enable PCMCIA
support through the BIOS setup program for the AT&T Globalyst laptops.
However, The AT&T Globalyst 130 does not have any options in the BIOS for
enabling/disabling the PCMCIA socket services on the laptop. Instead, the socket
must be enabled by loading the device driver, Ss365sl.exe, in the Config.sys.

The file, Ss365sl.exe, is a socket enabler, and must be loaded for protect mode
socket services to setup in Windows 95. Without this file, the PCMCIA socket
services are disabled.

The AT&T Globalyst 200S, 250, 250P, and 3141 contain BIOS settings to
enable/disable PCMCIA socket services on the laptop.
