If Something Goes Wrong
Resolving a hardware conflict
The computer stops working (hangs) when you insert a
PC Card.
The problem may be caused by an I/O (input/output) conflict
between the PCMCIA socket and another device in the
system. Use Device Manager to make sure each device has its
own I/O base address. See
Manager" on page 229
Since all PC Cards share the same socket, each card is not
required to have its own address.
Hot swapping (removing one PC Card and inserting
another without turning the computer off) fails.
Follow this procedure before you remove a PC Card:
1 Double-click the Safely Remove Hardware icon on the
System tray.
2 Select the item you wish to remove.
3 Click Stop.
4 Remove the device when prompted to do so.
5 Click OK three times to close the Safely Remove
Hardware screen.
The system does not recognize your PC Card.
Refer to the PC Card documentation.
Removing a malfunctioning card and reinstalling it can
correct many problems.
Never swap modules when the computer is in Hibernation or
Standby mode. This is known as "warm swapping" and is not
supported with this computer. For more information on
Hibernation and Standby modes see
page 85 and "Standby mode" on page
"Fixing a problem with Device
