Installing a PC Card

NOTE:

The length of some PC Cards may prevent the front-panel door from closing.

PC Cards are generally marked with a symbol (such as a triangle or an arrow) to indicate which end
to insert into the slot, and the cards are keyed to prevent incorrect insertion. If card orientation is
not clear, see the documentation supplied with the card.

1

Hold the card with its orientation symbol pointing into the slot and the top side of the card
facing up.

NOTE:

A PC Card is not a bootable device.

2

Insert the card into the slot, and press firmly until the card is completely seated in the internal
PC Card connector.

3

If you encounter too much resistance when you insert the card, do not force the card. Check
the card's orientation, and try again.

4

Your computer recognizes most PC Cards and automatically loads the appropriate device
driver for use with the computer. If the configuration program tells you to load the
manufacturer's drivers, install them with the CD that accompanied the PC Card.
