inserting it.

See your ExpressCard manual for instructions on the
insertion of your card. Some cards may require that your

To insert an ExpressCard, follow these steps:
1. Make sure there is no ExpressCard currently in the
slot. If there is, see Removing ExpressCards.
3. Insert your ExpressCard into the slot with the
product label facing up. If you are inserting a 34 mm
card, be sure to align it with the left side of the slot
when inserting it.
4. Push the card firmly into the slot until it is seated in
the connector.

You may be required to log on as Adminis-
trator or a member of the Administrator’s
Group to complete this procedure. If your
computer is connected to a network, net-
work policy settings may also prevent you
from completing this procedure.

Windows has a shutdown procedure for
ExpressCards that must be followed
before removing a card. (Review your
operating system manual for the correct
procedure.) It is good practice to remove
devices using the Safely Remove Hard-
ware icon in the system tray.

If the dialog box states that the device
cannot be removed, you must save all of
your open files, close any open applica-
tions and shut down your notebook.
