I have not used windows on this machine.
If USB is installed properly, a PCMCIA compactflash reader should just
plug right in.
You can then attatch this to a desktop using a USB reader.
Then you can go with anything that plugs into the USB port or the cardbus
slot.
Alternatively, open it up, pull the hard drive, install in desktop machine
with adaptor, use CD to copy stuff.
