YOU MAY BE REQUIRED TO LOG ON AS ADMINISTRATOR OR A MEMBER OF THE ADMINISTRATORS GROUP TO COMPLETE THIS PROCEDURE. IF YOUR COMPUTER IS CONNECTED TO A NETWORK, NETWORK 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:

1When not in use, you should keep the ExpressCard plug inserted in the slot to help prevent system contamination.

2Make sure there is no ExpressCard or ExpressCard plug currently in the slot. If there is, see Removing ExpressCards.

3If the eject button is extended, press it in until it clicks.

4Insert your ExpressCard into the slot with the product label facing up.

5Push 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 Standby 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 SAFELY REMOVE HARDWARE 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 APPLICATIONS AND SHUT DOWN YOUR NOTEBOOK.

To remove an ExpressCard, unlock the card or card plug from the slot by pressing it in, then releasing it. This will eject the card slightly out of the slot, allowing you to remove it.
