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 label-side facing toward the back
of your computer until the outer edge of the card is flush with the side of
your computer.
