Video Features and Configuration

If CardWizard cannot automatically configure your PC Card, the computer beeps
once and a message appears telling you that the card has not been configured.
Click the
Wizard
button on the CardWizard window. CardWizard then analyzes
why the card was not configured and fixes the problem or gives you information to
help fix the problem.
CardWizard works with the PowerProfiler program to manage PC Cards when the
computer enters or resumes from rest mode. CardWizard gives you instructions to
prevent loss of data before the computer enters rest mode or may stop the
computer from entering rest mode. ATA and modem cards can enter rest mode.
Follow these guidelines when using PC Cards with CardWizard:
•
Some LAN (local-area network) cards can be inserted while the computer
is on but should be removed only when the system is turned off.
•
SCSI cards should be inserted at startup to enable Windows NT to find the
device attached to the SCSI card. SCSI cards can be removed when the
computer is turned off. If you restart your computer without the SCSI card
installed, a message may appear telling you that a service did not start.
You can ignore this message.
•
Modem and ATA cards can be inserted and removed while the computer is
on.
