Using PC Cards

Your computer includes a PC card slot. PC cards allow you to connect portable external devices, such as a CD-ROM drive.

✍The PC card slot can accommodate one Type I or Type II PC card. This slot is compatible with 16 bit card and Card Bus. ZV (Zoomed Video) port is not available.

Some PC cards may require that you disable idle devices when using the PC card. You can use

Sony Notebook Setup to disable devices. See “Displaying the Sony Notebook Setup Screen” in the online document Customizing Your VAIO® Z505 SuperSlim Pro™ Notebook for details.

Be sure to use the most recent software driver provided by the PC card manufacturer.

If an “!” mark appears on the Device Manager tab in the System Properties dialog box, remove the software driver and then reinstall it.

To insert a PC card

✍You do not need to shut down the computer before inserting or removing a PC card.

1 Pull the PC card release button up away from the computer and push it in towards the computer.
