Removing a memory card
Be sure the memory card is oriented properly before you insert it.
If Windows

time. Do not attempt to install more than one card as you risk damaging
either the cards themselves or the computer.

card or turn off the computer's power. If you remove the card or turn off
the power while the computer is accessing the card you may lose data
or damage the card.
■ Do not remove the card while the computer is in Standby or Hibernation
mode. The computer could become unstable or data in the memory
card could be lost.
■ Do not turn off or place the computer into either Standby Mode or
Hibernation Mode while data is being transferred to or from the memory
card. The system may become unstable or data in the memory card
may be lost.
