Didn't we discuss this one before? It appears to be a CSS issue. When I 
used IBM's CSS for DOS, I could run the little command line application 
to switch on the fly. When I switched to Cardsoft's socket services, I 
had to either reboot or pop the card out and back in again.

In a nutshell, the card appears able to deal with it. Much software 
apparently does not. if your software doesn't, good luck getting a manf 
to consider it a priority.
