This is not supported, the CF Card is a PCMCIA / CardBus Card and you 
can not run it with a flashreader, you need a PCMCIA Yenta Socket. The 
socket is a sort or PCI card, this protocol is not supported via converter.

Buy a PCMCIA / CF-Card Bridge and use a PCMCIA to CF adapter , and it 
will work, or use a Notebook with an adapter,-)
