Little Cards that Do Big Things
What Do PC Cards Do?
This chapter describes the different types of PC Cards, tells you
how to install PC Cards and provides general tips on using them.
Since each card is different, you'll have to read your cards' docu-
mentation to use the card, but this chapter will help you get started.
If your PC Card came with a diskette, read "Programs that
Make Your PC Card Work" on page 160 before installing any
of its programs. The programs on the diskette may conflict
with built-in Windows 95 drivers.
