The computer emits a loud, high-pitched noise.
This is feedback between the microphone and the speakers. It
occurs in any sound system when input from a microphone is
fed to the speakers and the speaker volume is too loud. Adjust
the volume control.
Changing the settings for the Record Monitor feature in the
Recording Control Utility (default Off), or the Mute feature
in the Mixer Utility (default Enabled), may cause feedback.
Revert to the default settings.
PC Card problems
PC Cards (PCMCIA-compatible) include many types of
devices, such as a removable hard disk, additional memory,
or a pager.
Most PC Card problems occur during installation and setup
of new cards. If you’re having trouble getting one or more of
these devices to work together, several sections in this
chapter may apply.
Resource conflicts can cause problems when using PC Cards.
See “Resolving a hardware conflict” on page 207.
Card Information Structure
When you insert a PC Card into the slot, the computer
attempts to determine the type of card and the resources it
requires by reading its Card Information Structure (CIS).
Sometimes the CIS contains enough information for you to
use the card immediately.
Other cards must be set up before you can use them. Use the
Windows
®
XP PC Card (PCMCIA) Wizard to set up the card.
Refer to your Microsoft
®
documentation for more
information, or refer to the documentation that came with the
PC Card.
