✍Some PC Cards may require you to disable idle devices when using the PC Card.

Make sure to use the most recent software driver provided by the PC Card manufacturer.

If an “!” mark appears in the Device Manager dialog box, remove the software driver and then reinstall it. You do not need to shut down the computer before inserting or removing a PC Card.

Do not force a PC Card into the slot. It may damage the connector pins. If you have difficulty inserting a PC Card, check that you are inserting the PC Card in the correct direction. See the manual supplied with your PC Card for more information on use.

For some PC Cards, if you alternate between Normal power operation and Standby or Hibernate power management modes while the PC Card is inserted, you may find that a device connected to your system is not recognized. Reboot your system to correct the problem.

Do not put your notebook in a bag or a case with a PC Card inserted in the slot. Pressure or shock to the PC Card may damage your notebook.
