INSTALLING EXPRESSCARDS

There are two different width ExpressCards: 34 mm and 54 mm. The connector inside the slot is located on the left-hand side of the slot. If you insert a 34 mm card, be sure to align it with the left side of the slot when inserting it.

ExpressCards are installed in the ExpressCard slot (the top slot). (Figure 4-7).

Figure 4-7. Installing/Removing ExpressCards

Installing or removing an ExpressCard during your notebook’s shutdown or bootup process may damage the card and/or your notebook.

Do not insert an ExpressCard into a slot if there is water or any other substance on the card as you may permanently damage the card, your notebook, or both.

You may be required to log on as Adminis- trator or a member of the Administrator’s Group to complete this procedure. If your computer is connected to a network, net- work policy settings may also prevent you from completing this procedure.

See your ExpressCard manual for instructions on the installation of your card. Some cards may require that your notebook is off while installing them.

To install an ExpressCard, follow these steps:

1.Make sure there is no ExpressCard currently in the slot. If there is, see Removing ExpressCards.

2.If the eject button is extended, press it in until it clicks.

3.Insert your ExpressCard into the slot with the product label facing up. If you are inserting a 34 mm card, be sure to align it with the left side of the slot when inserting it.

4.Push the card firmly into the slot until it is seated in the connector.

REMOVING EXPRESSCARDS

See your ExpressCard manual for specific instructions on removing your card. Some cards may require your notebook to be in Suspend Mode or Off during removal.

Windows has a shutdown procedure for ExpressCards that must be followed before removing a card. (Review your operating system manual for the correct procedure.) It is good practice to remove devices using the Unplug or Eject Hard- ware icon in the system tray.

If the dialog box states that the device cannot be removed, you must save all of your open files, close any open applica- tions and shut down your notebook.

To remove an ExpressCard, follow these steps:

2.Unlock the card from the slot by pressing the eject button associated with the slot in which the card is located. When pressed, the button will pop out.

3.Firmly press the button again until it is flush with the notebook. This will eject the card slightly out of the slot allowing you to remove the card.

SMART CARD READER

A dedicated Smart Card Reader is provided on your notebook (Figure 4-8). Smart Cards are the same size and shape as credit cards, but they contain an integrated microprocessor chip. The chip can hold a variety of information, and provides you with many possible options, such as allowing you to make secure purchases, pay for phone calls, store security information, and provide personal identification and information.

In order to use the Smart Card Reader, you must purchase optional Smart Card third-party software.
