2
If the problem persists, reinstall the card
that you removed, remove a different card,
and then restart the computer.

computer starts normally, troubleshoot the
last card removed from the computer for
resource conflicts (see "Resolving Software
and Hardware Incompatibilities" on
page 49).

device to make sure it is functioning
