I stuck another pcmcia card in and it worked right off.  I re and re re installed the software.  I pulled the card out and was about to have a fit and toss it when it occurred to me, like why would they put the fancy part of the card on the bottom?  Also why was the card so hard to get out and in?  You guessed it, I was putting it in upside down!  duh.
