Using xD Picture cards
Your VAIO has an xD-Picture card slot that allows you to transfer pictures between your digital camera, PC, PDA, printer and more.
The xD-Picture Card is small and light, featuring high-speed transfer rates and high-volume capacity. Currently available in 16 MB,
32 MB, 64 MB, 128 MB and 256 MB versions, the card reaches high read/write speeds, and has an impressive range of compatibility.
Inserting an xD Picture card
To insert an xD Picture card, proceed as follows:
1 Insert the memory card into the slot with the arrow side pointing upwards.
2 Make sure the card is secure in the slot.
The card is automatically detected by your system and appears in the My Computer window with its own drive.
Always hold memory cards with the arrow pointing in the correct direction when you insert it into the slot. To avoid damaging the computer or the memory card, do not
force the card into the slot if it does not insert smoothly.
Removing an xD Picture card
To remove an xD Picture card, proceed as follows:
1 Make sure the indicator light is not on.
2 Push the card in to release it, and then pull it out.
You are recommended to remove the memory card before shutting down the computer.
If an error message appears when you remove it, insert the memory card into the slot again and press <Enter>. Wait until the active application finishes, then remove the
memory card. If the message confirms the ejection of the card, click OK.
Please do not remove the memory card when the access lamp is on. Otherwise, the card may not be detected the next time it is inserted into the slot. If the card is removed
by mistake and is subsequently not detected, please shut off the power of the computer, wait ten seconds and then turn it on again.
