Using PC Cards
Your computer includes two PC Card slots. PC Cards allow you to connect portable external devices.
Inserting a PC Card
To insert a PC Card, proceed as follows:
1 Insert the PC Card into one of the PC Card slots with the front label facing up.
2 Gently push the PC Card slot into the connector.
The PC Card is automatically detected by your system.
The Safely Remove Hardware icon appears in the system tray.
Some devices may not function properly if you repeat Returning to Normal mode from Standby mode or Hibernate mode.
The computer will return to its original state if you restart it.
The PC Card slots can accommodate (at the same time) two Types I, two Types II or one Type III PC Card. These slots are compatible with CardBus
ports.
Use the lower slot for PC Type III cards.
Some PC Cards may require you to disable idle devices when using the PC Card.
Be sure to use the most recent software driver provided by the PC Card manufacturer.
If an “!” mark appears on the Device Manager tab in the System Properties dialog box, remove the software driver and then reinstall it.
