Figure 18 Inserting a PCMCIA Card

PCMCIA cards accommodate a number of expansion options such as a memory card, a hard disk drive, and a network adapter. Your SA200 provides two PCMCIA slots that can receive two Type II PCMCIA compatible cards, or one Type III PCMCIA compatible card.

The PCMCIA compatible card slots are located on the right side of the SA200. The lower socket is for the Zoomed Video Option.

To insert a PCMCIA compatible card follow these instructions:

1.Locate the PCMCIA slots on the left side of your laptop. See Figure 4 on page 8.

2.Hold the PCMCIA compatible card with the arrow side up and the connector side toward the slot.

3.Insert the card into the appropriate slot. The top slot is socket 1, the bottom slot is socket 0. When the card in socket 1 is fully seated, the black eject button located on the left side of the slot will pop out. When the card in socket 0 is fully seated the black eject button on the right side will pop out.

4.Configure your PCMCIA card in Windows 95 as directed. This may require using additional driver files not found in Windows 95. Please consult the instructions provided with your PCMCIA device on PCMCIA installation.
