Using the memory card reader
Digital cameras and other digital imaging
devices use memory cards to store digital
picture or media files. The built-in memory
card reader on the front panel of your system
allows you to read from and write to different
memory card drives.
To use the memory card:
1. Insert the memory card into the card slot.
• A memory card is keyed so that it fits in only one direction. DO NOT force a card into a slot to
avoid damaging the card.
• You can place media in one or more of the card slots and use each media independently. Place
only one memory card in a slot at one time.
2. Select a program from the AutoPlay window to access your files.
• If AutoPlay is NOT enabled in your computer, hover your mouse pointer over the lower left
corner of Windows® desktop then right-click on the Start screen’s thumbnail. From the popup
menu, click File Explorer, and then double-click the memory card icon to access the data on it.
• Each card slot has its own drive icon which is displayed on the Computer screen.
3. When finished, right-click the memory card drive icon on the Computer screen, click Eject ,
and then remove the card.
Hover your mouse pointer over the lower left corner of Windows® desktop then right-click on the
Start screen’s thumbnail. From the popup menu, click File Explorer to open the Computer screen.
Never remove cards while or immediately after reading, copying, formatting, or deleting data on
the card or else data loss may occur.
To prevent data loss, use “Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media” in the Windows® notification
area before removing the memory card.
