Features, Utilities and Options

Formatting an SD card

SD memory cards are sold already formatted in conformity to specific

standards. If you format the SD card again, be sure to format it with the

TOSHIBA SD Memory Card Format utility, not with the format commands

provided within Windows.
In order to run TOSHIBA SD Memory Card Format, click start, point to All

Programs, point to TOSHIBA, point to Utilities and click SD Memory

Card Format.
The TOSHIBA SD Memory Card Format utility does not format the

protected area of the SD memory card. Should you need to format all areas

of the memory card, including the protected area, you will need to obtain an

appropriate application that applies the copy protection system.

®

wireless communication function to a computer with the

SDIO card.

Memory Stick/Memory Stick Pro

The computer is equipped with a Bridge media slot that can accommodate

Memory Stick/Memory Stick Pro flash memory cards with various memory

capacities. Memory Stick let you easily transfer data from devices, such as

digital cameras and Personal Digital Assistants, that use Memory Stick

protect a Memory Stick, slide the lock on the back of the Memory Stick to

the lock position.

Keep foreign objects out of the Bridge media slot. Never allow metal

objects, such as screws, staples and paper clips, to enter the PC or

keyboard. Foreign metal objects can create a short circuit, which can

cause PC damage and fire, possibly resulting in serious injury.

The slot does not support Magic Gate functions.

compatible with the Bridge media slot. Do not insert Memory Stick

Duo/PRO Duo into the slot. Data may be lost or damaged if you use

any card other than those supported.
