Making Connections
Using Plug-In Modules
Corporate Evaluator’s Guide 55
To replace a plug-in module
Windows 95 and 98 use the Agaté Tioman hot-swap software to let you disconnect most
plug-in modules without shutting down the computer. Before replacing a hard drive
module, however, you must first shut down the computer.
Windows 2000 displays the Unplug or Eject Hardware icon at the right end of the taskbar
when a drive module is present.
CAUTION
Before disconnecting a CD-ROM drive, DVD drive, or any other type of drive, you
must either use the icon in the taskbar or shut down the computer—otherwise, you
could lose data.
Exception: for Windows 95 or 98, you must shut down the computer before
connecting or disconnecting a hard disk drive.
Handle and store a module carefully when it’s out of the computer. Do not drop it
or apply excessive pressure to its surfaces—this could damage its internal
mechanisms. Do not touch the metallic pins on the computer’s connectors, module
connectors, or cable connectors. Static electricity can damage internal components.
1. Close all files that are open from the plug-in module.
2. Windows 95 or 98 : If the plug-in module icon is present in the taskbar, right-click the
icon, then click Remove Device. When prompted to remove the module, click OK.
(You don’t have to do this if the bay is empty or contains a battery.)
Windows 2000 : Left-click the Unplug or Eject Hardware icon on the taskbar, and
select the module you want to remove. When prompted to remove the module, click
OK. (You don’t have to do this if the bay is empty or contains a battery.)
–or–
For any system: Click Start, Shut Down, Shut down. For Windows 95 or 98, you must
do this if you are removing or inserting a hard disk drive in the module bay.
