5 - User notes (known deviations)
---------------------------------

* The Smart Card Resource Manager is not Plug and Play on Windows NT4.
  This is a system limitation. You *must reboot* your system after a 
  reader installation to be able to use it.

* When going to suspend mode, Windows unloads most device drivers.
  Even though device drivers are reloaded on resume, the Microsoft 
  Smart Card Resource Manager does not update its references to these
  devices.
  Note that you might also get the message:
  "Reader monitor '' received uncaught error code. The 
  device does not recognize the command."
  We recommend that you configure your computer so that it cannot go
  to suspend mode and that you shut it down instead of using the
  suspend mode.

* This driver does not support Plug and Play requests nor power 
  management.  This is a limitation of Windows NT4 and Microsoft's
  Smart Card Resource Manager.


6. Troubleshooting
-------------------
If the previously described procedure didn't succeed in installing or
updating the driver, please

1- Verify that the reader cable is connected to a usable computer
   COM port

2- Verify that the power cable is connected to the keyboard port.

3- Open the Device Manager, 
   click on the "Smart card readers" group and
   check the state of the Gemplus GemPC413 reader.
   If a cross appears, select the reader, 
   click on property in the menu and 
   check the line "de-activate in this material profile" and 
   contact the support.
