Using PC Cards

Using PC Cards
Your notebook computer comes with a PC Card slot and
supports two types of PC Cards:
❖
Type I cards—You can install one of these cards.
❖
Type II cards—You can install one of these cards.
The PC Card slot supports hot swapping, which allows you to
replace one PC Card with another while the computer is on.

Inserting a PC Card

Before you insert a PC Card, refer to the documentation that
comes with the card to see if you need to do anything before
you insert it.
To insert a PC Card:
1 Locate the PC Card slot on the left side of the computer.
2 Insert the PC Card.
NOTE
TECHNICAL NOTE: For PCMCIA-compatible PC Cards, check
the package to make sure they conform to the PCMCIA 2.1
standard (or later). Other cards may work with your computer,
but are likely to be much more difficult to set up and use.
Depending on your model, the ExpressCard slot above the PC
Card slot may not be available.
