Installing a Card

1. The top side of a PC Card is usually identified with a label. Insert the card into the slot with the top up and the edge with pinhole

contacts going in first. You will feel some resistance as the card slides into the back of the slot.

2. PC Cards require drivers, or a program that allows the operating system to use a specific device. Many drivers are included with

Windows, but if not, you will be prompted to install the driver included with your card.

NOTE Please read the instructions included with individual PC Cards. Some cards may be inserted with power on, while others require that

the computer be turned off.

Removing a PC Card

3. When the Windows message appears, telling you that it is safe to remove the card, tap OK.

4. Press the eject button on the PC Card slot to release the eject button (it is spring loaded and remains hidden until it is pressed).

5. Press the eject button again to release the PC Card.
