Using your VAIO computer
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.
If your computer has two PC Card slots, the PC Card slots can accommodate (at the same time) two Type I, two Type II or one Type III PC Card. These slots are
compatible with Card Bus ports.
If your computer has two PC Card slots, use the lower slot for Type III PC Cards.
Some PC Cards may require you to disable idle devices when using the PC Card. You can use the Sony Notebook Setup utility to disable devices.
Make sure you 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.
You do not need to shut down the computer before inserting or removing a PC Card.
Do not force a PC Card into the slot. It may damage the connector pins. If you have difficulty inserting a PC Card, check that you are inserting the PC Card in the
correct direction. See the manual supplied with your PC Card for more information on use.
For some PC Cards, if you alternate between Normal power operation and Standby or Hibernate power management modes while the card is inserted, you may
find that a device connected to your system is not recognised. Restart your system to correct the problem.
Do not carry your computer while touching the head of a PC Card, as pressure or shock may damage the connector pins.
If your computer has two PC Card slots, it is recommended that you always use the same slot for a PC Card as switching slots can cause problems with some
PC Cards.
