Inserting PC Cards
Use caution when lifting or turning your computer. Failure to
do so may result in damage to components, such as cables,
attached to your computer, or to the computer itself.
Before you insert a PC Card, refer to the documentation that
comes with the card to see if you need to do anything before you
insert it.
To insert a PC Card:
1
Turn off the computer.
You may also hot swap a PC Card. Stop the PC Card by
clicking the
Safely Remove Hardware
icon on the System
tray. After the Safe to Remove Hardware message appears, it
is safe to remove the PC Card.
2
Align the card connectors with an available PC Card slot
and carefully slide the card into the slot until it locks into
place.
