 (PCMCIA-compatible) include many types of 

devices, such as a removable hard disk, additional memory, or a 
pager. 

Most Express Card problems occur during installation and setup of 
new cards. If you are having trouble getting one or more of these 
devices to work together, several sections in this chapter may apply.

If your system does not have built-in drivers for your Express Card 
and the card did not come with an operating system driver, it may 
not work under the operating system. Contact the manufacturer of 
the Express Card for information about using the card under the 
operating system.

Make sure the card is inserted properly into the slot.

available, try the card in that machine. If the card malfunctions 
again, it may be defective.
