Connecting PC Cards

The computer’s PC Card slot is available for storing data and expanding the communication capabilities of the computer. The computer supports standard Type II and III PC Cards (PCMCIA and CardBus). You can insert one card of any type.

To insert or remove a PC Card

Inserting a PC Card

1.Hold the PC Card with its face up and its connector holes toward the card slot.

2.Slide the PC Card all the way into the bottom of the slot. Most cards are properly seated when the outer edge is flush with the casing of the computer, but some cards are designed to protrude from the case.
