PC Card Handling

The PowerBook G3 Series has two PC Card slots that can hold two PC cards simultaneously. Both slots hold Type I (3.3 mm) and Type II (5 mm) cards, but only the lower slot holds a Type III (10.5 mm) card. When a Type III PC Card is inserted in the lower slot, the upper slot cannot be used.

The lower PC Card slot has circuitry for handling video signals (zoom video) and DVD-Video PC cards. Although a zoom video card is a Type II card, it can only be used in the lower slot.

The following are guidelines for properly handling PC Cards:

• Use only cards that are compatible with the PC Card unit. Refer to the compatibility information that came with the PC Card. If you cannot find the compatibility information, contact the card vendor.
