With the repeated insertion/removal of a PC Card, the computer may no longer
recognize the PC Card (depending on the type of card). In such cases, restart the
computer.

removing and then reinserting the PC Card. If this does not correct the problem,
restart the computer.

When the PC Card is connected, power consumption increases. Remove the PC Card
when not in use, especially when operating on battery power.
