If something goes wrong
❖
Occasionally a defective PC Card slips through quality
control. If another PCMCIA-equipped computer is
available, try the card in that machine. If the card
malfunctions again, it may be defective.
Here are some common problems and their solutions:
Resolving PC Card problems
The slot appears dead and cards that worked no longer
do.
Check the PC Card status:
1 Click Start.
2 Click My Computer icon with the secondary button,
then click Properties.
The System Properties window appears.
3 Click the Hardware tab.
4 Click the Device Manager button.
5 Double-click the appropriate category for the PC Card
being used.
6 Double-click the name of the PC Card device.
The operating system displays your PC Card's Properties
window, which contains information about your PC Card
configuration and status.
The computer stops working (hangs) when you insert a
PC Card.
Remove the PC Card. If removing the PC Card does not
resolve the problem, try restarting the computer. If the
computer still does not work, contact the PC Card's
manufacturer.
