Locate the PC card slot cover on the left side of the computer.
2.
Insert the side of the PC card with the 68-pin socket into the PC slot.
The face label of the card should also be facing up.

When the full length of the card is almost inside the slot, push firmly but
slowly, to ensure full connection with the computer. The PC card will be

sound to indicate that the card is detected.
