First of all I know this technically isn't a question for the Mobile
forum, since it pertains to my little mini-tower.  However, it does have
something to do with getting my Orinoco Gold PC Card operational and
this forum is as good as any to try.  

Here's the scenario:
When I attempted to install FreeBSD 4.9R on my old ThinkPad laptop, the
install program loaded a generic PC controller and then my wireless NIC
was good to go.  There was a video limitation so I scrapped loading the
full OS with X on the ThinkPad.  That being said, I also had the Gold PC
Card running in my mini-tower at one time (under WinNT) via a PC
controller card that I had to get from the manufacturer.  I guess this
controller card is proprietary or something.  When I booted from the
4.9R install floppies the system never prompted me to use PCMCIA as the
install medium as it did with the laptop.  No PCMCIA controller = no
Gold card...

Do any of you know how/where I can get docs/info to get this PC
controller up so I can get the Gold card running?

Thanks in advance for the assist,
Pat B.
