Using Cards
NOTE:
Electrical and electronic devices are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). If a substantial ESD
occurs, the device may reset and the device software may attempt to reinitialize a connection. If the software
is not operational after an ESD occurrence, restart the modem software program.
Card Types
PC Cards
See "PC Card" on page 165 for information on supported PC Cards.
NOTE:
A PC Card is not a bootable device.
The PC Card slot has one connector that supports a single Type I or Type II card. The PC Card slot
supports CardBus technology and extended PC Cards. "Type" of card refers to its thickness, not its
functionality.
Smart Cards
Smart cards provide valuable tools for security, data storage, and special programs (see "Smart Card"
on page 67).
Card Blanks
Your computer shipped with a plastic blank installed in the card slots. Blanks protect unused slots
from dust and other particles. Save the blank for use when no card is installed in the slots; blanks
from other computers may not fit your computer.
To remove a blank, see "Removing a Card or Blank" on page 64.
Extended Cards
An extended PC Card (for example, a wireless network adapter) is longer than a standard PC Card
and extends outside the computer. Follow these precautions when using extended PC Cards:
• Protect the exposed end of an installed card. Striking the end of the card can damage the system
board.
• Always remove an extended PC Card before you pack the computer in its carrying case.
