PC Card

Your computer is equipped with a PC card (PCMCIA) slot, which can accommodate one Type II card. Before inserting a PC card into your computer, see its manual.

When using a PC card which needs an IRQ, disable one of the following ports: Serial, IR, LPT, Modem, or Sound. Otherwise a PC card or the computer may malfunction.

Never disable the USB port. Disabling the USB port in the Setup Utility may cause some PC cards to malfunction.
