Series User’s Manual

PCMCIA

PROBLEM: I cannot fit my PC Card into the PCMCIA slot.

ACTIONS:

If the card is a Type III card, you will not be able to use the card with your WinBook X Series computer. Your PCMCIA slot will only accept Type I or Type II cards.

PROBLEM: The PC Card is not operating properly.

ACTIONS:

Make sure that the card is properly seated.

Although a PC Card can be hot swapped in at any time, the functioning of some cards (such as drive cards or network cards) might require that you reboot with the card in place.

Check with the card manufacturer to determine if there are updated drivers for the card. This might be especially useful if that card is an older card that predates your operating system.

Pointing Devices

PROBLEM: I plugged an external PS/2 pointing device into the WinBook notebook, but it doesn’t work.

ACTIONS:

Check to make sure that the PS/2 port has not been disabled. Reboot the system and press [F2] to enter the Setup program. Use the right- arrow key to move to the Advanced Menu. Scroll down to the I/O Device Configuration Submenu. Hit [Enter] to enter this submenu. Scroll down to PS/2 Mouse. If the port is disabled, use the [+] key to toggle the setting to “Auto Detect.” Hit [Esc] twice to go to the Exit Menu. Hit [Enter]
