NOTE
Exploring Your Computer's Features
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.
Do not insert a PC Card while the computer is in standby or
Hibernation Mode. Some cards might not work properly.
A hard disk drive or CD-ROM/DVD-ROM connected to a 16-
bit PC Card might affect the performance of the computer's
sound system and modem data transmission, including slower
transmission speeds and dialing errors.
