ExpressCard Problems
A card inserted in the
ExpressCard slot does not
work or is locking up the
system.
The card is not properly
installed.
Remove and re-install the card.
The card may have
been installed while an
application was running,
so your notebook is not
aware of its installation.
Close the application and restart your notebook.
Your software may not
have the correct soft-
ware driver active.
See your software documentation and activate the correct driver.
You may have the
wrong I/O address
selected for your card.
See your ExpressCard documentation to determine the required
I/O address. Change the settings in Device Manager.
Your card and another
device are assigned the
same I/O address.
Check all I/O addresses located within the Device Manager and
any other installed hardware or software to make sure there are
no duplications.
Power Failures
You turn on the system and
nothing seems to happen.
The Power adapter (AC
or auto/airline) is faulty.
Try a different Power adapter or install a charged optional second
battery.
The main battery is
completely discharged,
there is no power
adapter or optional sec-
ond battery installed.
Check the Status Indicator Panel to determine the presence and
condition of the batteries. See “Status Indicator Panel” on
page 20. Install a charged battery or a Power adapter.
