Check the documentation that came with the PC Card to see if it
conforms to the PCMCIA 2.1 standard, or later. Other cards may
work with your computer, but are likely to be much more difficult to
set up and use.
Inserting PC Cards
PC Cards require Card and Socket Services software a set of
programs that acts as a translator between the PC Card and the
computer, and that makes hot swapping (switching cards while the
computer is on) possible.
TECHNICAL NOTE: Microsoft

®
series oper-
ating system provides the Card and Socket Services
for your PC Card. Even if your PC Card comes with its
own version of Card and Socket Services, you should
use the files included in Microsoft

operating system. Some PC Cards do not support Hot
swapping. Refer to your PC Card’s manual for informa-
tion.

more information, see “Hot swapping”.
