FAULTY CONDITION
1. Carry out the light protect (the LOCK notch) of the memory stick main
body.
2. Memory stick is connected to the memory stick PCMCIA adapter
(MSAC-PC1/MSAC-PC2).
3. Write protect of the USB Mass Storage driver is canceled.
4. Write data (includes “delete file”, “format”) from the host
(Windows98, Macintosh).
NOTE: In the case that four aforementioned conditions were
included, all the faulty occurs.
PHENOMENON
Processing ends normally when it wrote data in the media with both
WIndows98 and Macintosh. However, all the processing fail actually.
Also, the blue screen is displayed, in the case that it is worst.
CAUSE
The cause of this problem is that the combination of the memory stick
and PCMCIA adapter are not conforming to the specifications of PCMCIA.
It is not able to detect it electrically even if the memory stick is set up to
“write protect”, although PCMCIA is the possibility specification that
detect whether or not is the media of “write protect” electrically.
CAUTION
As for the SONY memory stick, the following faulty occurs.
Therefore, the restriction on use exists.
