Installing PC Cards
PC Cards are installed in the PC Card slot (the lower of the two slots). To install a PC Card:

notebook is off while installing them.
2
Make sure there is no PC Card currently in the slot. If there is, see Removing PC Cards.
3
If the eject button is extended, press it until it clicks.
4
Insert the card into the slot with the label facing up.
5
Push the card firmly into the slot until it is seated in the connector.
Removing PC Cards

notebook to be in Sleep Mode or Off during removal.
