Notes on using PC Cards
❑ For some PC Cards, if you alternate between normal power operation and
the Standby or Hibernate modes while the card is inserted, you may find that
a device connected to your system is not recognized. Reboot your system to
correct the problem.
❑ 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 “To display
the Sony Notebook Setup screen” for more information.
❑ Make sure you use the most recent software driver provided by the PC Card
manufacturer.
❑ If an exclamation mark (!) appears on the Device Manager tab in the System
Properties dialog box, remove the software driver and then reinstall it.
❑ You may not be able to use some PC Cards or some functions of the PC Card
with this computer. If you have difficulty inserting a PC Card, check that you
are orienting the card correctly. See the manual that came with your PC Card
for more information on its use.
