5.1.1 PCI Express Card Types
The New Card slot supports one 54mm type PCI Express Card. It supports both USB 2.0
and PCI Express technology, which improves bus speed in data transfer and requires less
power than PC Cards.
A PCI Express Card is not a bootable device.
5.1.2 Installing a PCI Express Card
PCI Express Cards, with hot-plug feature, allow you to install and remove cards when your
notebook is running. The card will be detected automatically when installed.
Usually PCI Express Cards have a mark or symbol to show which end to insert into the slot.
Insert the card according to the orientation symbol, and slide the card into the slot. Check
the documents that came with your card if the orientation is unclear.
1. Press to release the dummy card from the New Card slot.
2. Hold the PCI Express card with its orientation symbol pointing into the slot and the
topside of the card facing up.
3. Slide the card into the slot until it clicks into the connector.
4. If you encounter too much resistance, do not force the card. Check the card orientation
and try again.
