Connecting to Memory Sticks, Card Readers, Memory Cards

You can copy fi les from another PC to the system. There are a wide variety of memory devices
which can be used for copying fi les from another PC. These memory devices include memory
sticks (fl ash memory), smart memory, memory cards, portable hard disk drives, etc. Most such
devices can connect to the USB port on the rear panel of the system. Flash memory cards have
become one of the most convenient and popular methods of media storage for digital cameras,
MP3 players, PDAs, and mobile phones.
To copy fi les from a memory stick to your system, simply plug the memory stick into one of
the USB ports on the rear panel of your system or USB hub.
Notes:
1. To prevent damaging your memory stick inadvertently, you are suggested to "uninstall"
the memory stick by clicking the hardware uninstallation icon at the lower right corner of
the Windows task bar.
2. Never remove the memory stick while your system is formatting, reading, and writing data.
3. Never turn off the power abruptly while your system is formatting, reading, and writing data.
4. Read the operating instructions which come with your memory device carefully before using
that memory device.
Once you insert a memory device to your system, a balloon will appear at the lower right corner
of your screen, telling you that the system has detected that a new hardware was installed to
the system. The balloon will also show the icon which is associated with the hardware device
(memory). You should click that icon after you have fi nished copying fi les to or from the
memory device.
