:I also just found that some drivers do not like being ejected at

Windows asks for you to inform it before yanking a pccard, but it's not
strictly necessary.  I suspect that MS does this because there are a few
cards out there that really do need to unload the driver prior to being
pulled (like SCSI cards and such).
