CAUTION: Before you begin any of the procedures in this section, follow the

safety instructions in the Product Information Guide.

To install a memory card:

Hold the card with the top side of the card facing up.

Slide the card into the slot until the card is completely seated in its connector.

If you encounter too much resistance, do not force the card. Check the

card orientation and try again.

The computer recognizes the memory card and automatically loads the

appropriate device driver. If the configuration program tells you to load the

manufacturer's drivers, use the media that came with the memory card, if

applicable.
