how to force Vcc to 5V

Hi!
I used to do all the tests with my old laptop till it broke, now I'm doing
the tests with my new laptop and I cannot get as far as I could with the old
one, so I think the new laptop gives a weaker signal using the same card.
The only difference I find between the two is that the new one is powering
the card at 3.3V and the old one was using 5V.
So, I was wondering if I could force the driver to power the card with 5V to
test if this was really the thing that was making the difference.
I have tried using ignore_cis_vcc=1 but without any luck, This are the
config registries of my card:
config base 0x03e0 mask 0x0001 last_index 0x02
cftable_entry 0x01 [default]
Vcc Vnom 3300mV Vmin 3V Vmax 3600mV Iavg 300mA
Ipeak 300mA Idown 10mA
io 0x0000-0x003f [lines=6] [16bit]
irq mask 0xffff [level] [pulse]
cftable_entry 0x02
Vcc Vnom 5V Vmin 4750mV Vmax 5250mV Iavg 300mA
Ipeak 300mA Idown 10mA
Any ideas?
I don't mind having to touch the code a bit, so any suggestion will be
welcome.
Thanks in advance!
