PC Cards
The computer is equipped with a PC Card expansion slot that can 
accommodate one 5 mm Type II card. Any PC Card that meets industry 
standards (manufactured by TOSHIBA or other vendor) can be installed. 
The slots support 16-bit PC Cards, including PC Card 16’s multifunction 
card and CardBus PC Cards.
CardBus supports the new standard of 32-bit PC Cards. The bus provides 
superior performance for the greater demands of multimedia data 
transmission.
Installing a PC Card
The PC Card slot is located on the left side of the computer. You can install 
one Type II card in the slot.
Windows’ hot-install feature lets you install PC Cards while the computer’s 
power is on.
To install a PC Card, follow the steps below.
1. Insert the PC Card. 
2. Press gently to ensure a firm connection.

3. Check the configuration in the HW Setup window to make sure it is 
appropriate for your card.
Do not install a PC Card while the computer is in Standby Mode or 
hibernation mode. Some cards might not work properly.
An HDD or CD-ROM connected to a 16-bit PC Card, might affect the 
performance of the computer’s sound system and data transmission, 
including slower transmission speeds and dialing errors.
