Inserting an ExpressCard
Ä
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the ExpressCard connectors:
■ Use minimal force when inserting an ExpressCard into an
ExpressCard slot.
■ Do not move or transport the computer while an ExpressCard is
inserted.
1. Position the ExpressCard label-side up with the connectors
facing the computer.
2. Gently slide the card into the slot until the card is seated.
The operating system will issue a sound to indicate that a
device has been detected.
✎
The first time you insert an ExpressCard, the “Found New
Hardware” message is displayed in the notification area, at
the far right of the taskbar.
