Adding and removing PC Cards
Your computer has one PC Card slot (also known as a PCMCIA card slot). This slot accepts
Type I and Type II PC Cards.
You do not need to restart your computer when changing most cards because your
computer supports hot-swapping. Hot-swapping means that you can insert a PC Card while
your computer is running. If the PC Card does not work after hot-swapping, see the
PC Card manufacturer’s documentation for further information.
Adding a PC Card
To insert a PC Card:
■ Push the card firmly into the PC Card slot with the label side facing the front of
your computer until the outer edge of the card is flush with the side of your
computer.
