You may have a problem with the 32 bit PCMCIA slot, I think that the MR requires a 16 bit slot.

Not saying thatit's definitely the case, but I seem to remember hearing that it is, will have a check and see.

Would appear that some laptops can recognise both, try inserting the cam and if it recognises it as an unknown device, you just ask it to install drivers from the location where you have the correct drivers.dreammagic.inf/dvbcamd.sys .

Tutut over on Toecutters started a very informative thread, but I think that he is upgrading it at the moment, he answered most questions on using a Laptop.
