Hi, folks

I have a Toshiba Libretto 50, which has a 5 volt supply on the PCMCIA slots.

I want to use an 802.11b wireless card, but all the newer ones are 3.3 volt, and either overheat or crash on 5 volts.

Does anyone know of an 802.11b card that runs on 5 volts, OR does anyone have a board layout of the Libretto's mainboard that would show me where to cut the 5 volt lines to the PCM connector and where to pick up 3.3 volts as the supply?

Best regards,

Ian
