Ugh. This brings back some memories. I'm pretty sure it was a sat
pro that I had some cardbus problems with some time ago. I believe
I did a bios update, which changed things; better but not perfect. So
try that, and look in the bios settings for anything that can tweak the
cardbus slots. Given my experiences with this, I'm thinking there is
a good chance that your problem lies in the laptop itself. Good luck.
