Adding and removing a PC Card
Your notebook has a PC Card slot (also known as a PCMCIA card slot).
This slot accepts one Type II card. You do not need to restart your
notebook when changing most cards because your notebook supports
hot-swapping. Hot-swapping means that you can insert a PC Card while
your notebook is running. If your PC Card does not work after
hot-swapping, see the PC Card manufacturer’s documentation for further
information.
Important Do not use the remove hardware icon in the taskbar
to remove the memory card. If you use the remove
hardware icon, your notebook may not recognize your
memory card reader until you restart your notebook.
