what thinkpad series is it and how old? I have a T60 (part of my job) and it IS a tank. It's been dropped, had tea and applejuice spilled in it (gotta love kids), runs FOR-EVER on batteries (I can literally get almost 5-6 hours battery time with the screen on full-brightness and only the cpu/hdd being thrown into their power reduced states), and has everything but a built in cardreader and firewire. I've never had a software glitch or driver mishap on it yet. Plus I love the feature that detects if the laptop is being moved and shuts the hdd down until the movement is stabilized.
Thing is still going strong (I did clean the tea and juice from the keyboard though).
so this PCMCIA adapter is what's causing all your headache? What devices do you have in the car that require USB2?
