PC Card Types
This computer can support two Type II cards or one Type III card.
It supports both 16-bit and CardBus (32-bit)
PC Cards. Several kinds of PC Cards are supported, such as
network cards, hard drive cards, memory cards, and fax/modem
cards.
For a current list of third party PC Cards qualified on this
computer, call your Compaq authorized dealer, reseller, or service
provider.
Inserting a PC Card
To insert a PC Card into one of the computer PC Card slots:
1. If you are running Windows NT 4.0 without Compaq
CardWare, turn off the computer. If you are running Windows
95 or later, you do not need to turn off the computer or initiate
Suspend before inserting a PC Card.
NOTE:
If you are running Windows NT and Compaq
CardWare 5.0, insertion of the PC Card while the computer is
on is supported for most PC Cards. Contact your PC Card
vendor directly for information about the level of support they
offer for "hot insertion” with CardWare 5.0.
