Using PC Cards

Your computer includes two PC card slots. PC cards allow you to connect
portable external devices, such as a PCMCIA Modem Card, another hard
disk drive, additional memory, or to connect a network.
The PC card slots can accommodate (at the same time) two Type I, two Type II, or one Type
III PC card. These slots are compatible with Card Bus. Both upper and lower slots are
compatible with ZV (Zoomed Video) port.
To insert a PC card
Use the lower slot for Type III PC cards.
To insert the supplied PC card modem, refer to "Connecting a PC card modem" on
page 42.
You do not need to shut down the computer before inserting or removing a PC card.
1
Pull the PC card release button towards the outside of the computer
and push it in.
2
Remove the PC card slot protector.
When you use a Type III PC card, you need to remove both the top
and bottom PC card slot protectors.
