the Standby or Hibernate modes while the card is inserted, you may find that
a device connected to your system is not recognized. Reboot your system to
correct the problem.

Some PC Cards may require that you disable idle devices when using the PC
Card. You can use Sony Notebook Setup to disable devices. See "To display
the Sony Notebook Setup screen" for more information.
