Pc Card Slot - Acer TravelMate 2000 User Manual

PC Card slot

There are one Type III or two Type II CardBus PC Card slots found on
the left side of the computer. The slots accept credit-card-sized cards
that enhance the usability and expandability of the computer. These
cards should have a PC Card logo on them.
PC Cards (formerly PCMCIA) are add-on cards for portable computers,
giving you expansion possibilities long afforded by desktop PCs.
CardBus improves on the 16-bit PC card technology by expanding the
bandwidth to 32 bits.
Note: Refer to your card manual for details on how to install and
use the card and its functions.
Inserting a PC Card
Insert the card into the lower slot and make the proper connections
(e.g., network cable), if necessary. See your card manual for details.
Ejecting a PC Card
Before ejecting a PC Card:
1 Exit the application using the card.
2 Left-click on the Safely Remove Hardware icon on the taskbar and
click on the PC Card item. Click OK to confirm.
