INSTALLATION
To install the wireless mini-PCI card (WMIB 100GS) in your Tablet PC,
follow these steps:
WARNING: To avoid the risk of personal injury or damage to the Tablet PC,
when performing the following tasks, turn off your Tablet PC, unplug the AC
power connection, and remove the battery. Ground yourself by touching a
grounded conductive surface, such as a device or appliance with a grounded,
three-pronged plug. Avoid touching the pins and leads on the memory module
and the internal circuitry of the Tablet PC.
1. Disconnect the Tablet PC from AC power and remove the battery.
2. Remove the two small Phillips head screws securing the L-shaped
cover from the bottom of the Tablet PC.
3. (If you are replacing an existing wireless card and not just installing a
card in an empty slot) Release the two clips on each side of the card.
When the card pops up, gently pull it from the mini-PCI slot.
4. Align the edge connectors on the mini-PCI card with the mini-PCI
socket on the Tablet PC.
5. Holding the wireless mini-PCI card at a 25-degree angle, gently push
it into the mini-PCI socket of the Tablet PC motherboard until it is
firmly seated.
6. Snap the card into place.
