Working with PC Cards

By installing PC Cards, you can add functions to your notebook computer similar
to those found on add-in boards for desktop computers. Available PC Cards
include:
Input/output, such as modem, network, pager, video capture, and SCSI cards.
Storage, such as hard drive and flash (SRAM) cards.
Combo cards, such as a combination modem and network card.
Your computer includes the following PC Card support:
Two PC-Card slots: You can install Type I, II, or III cards in the slots. Type
III cards are thicker than Types I and II. If you install a Type III card in the
bottom slot, you cannot install a card in the top slot.
CardBus hardware and software: CardBus enables the computer to use 32-bit
PC Cards. Windows 98/ Me supports 32-bit and 16-bit PC Cards. The
SystemSoft
systems that ship from the factory with Windows NT installed, also supports
both 16-bit and 32-bit cards.
Zoomed video: Both PC Card slots and the video chip on your computer
support zoomed video. When you install a zoom video PC Card in the upper
or lower slot, data can be transferred directly from the PC Card to video and
audio systems without going through the microprocessor. Video conferencing
and real-time multimedia devices, such as video cameras, are supported by
zoomed video.
